In December 1915 , Lake Morena was nearly empty and everybody in San Diego was praying for rain. In desperation , the city council contacted Charles Hatfield , the Rainmaker. Hatfield agreed to fill the lake for $10 ,000. On January 1 1916 , he started work , using his secret rain-making chemicals. By January 5 , the rain had started. By January 20 , it had been raining non-stop for two weeks. On January 26 , the level of the lake was rising by two feet per hour when suddenly it stopped一just five inches from the top. Having kept his promise , Hatfield wanted his money. But the city council refused to pay , saying that the rain was an ‘ act of God'. Hatfield had only made a verbal agreement , and hadn't signed a contract. He never received a penny.
