away. and nearly all small buildings in the line of the flood succumbed to it. The damage in the Bald Eagle valley will amount to S75O, 900.
 In Penn's valley there were loss of life and many miraculous. escapes. All along this valley saw and grist mills were car ried away and destroyed. The flood oc- curing at midnight, caught most of the people unprepared. At Millheim and Coburn several houses were carried away with the people in them, but all es- capped alive except Mrs. simon Phoust and three children. Their house was overturned and all were drowned. Her husband worked in Cameron county and hearing that there was trouble started to come home. but he also was drowned in crossing tho river at Sinnemahoning. The damage in this part of the county will also amount to s750, ,0O0, made up of individual losses from $500 to s2O, GOO. Some poor people lost not only their houses and contents, but also their lots, nothing being left but creek bottom of rocks and debris.
 The great loss of life occurred on Fish ing creek. It rises in the Nitanny valley, ten miles above Bellefonte, and flows into the Bald Eagle, near Millhall. The valley is narrow. There was large dam at Washington Furnace. at the head of the valley, and 1t broke in the night and filled the valley from mountain to noun tain, sweeping everything before it. All those drowned were lost by their houses being swept away and torn apart The flood left only few houses in what were prosperous villages of from twenty to thirty houses each. Many families were saved by getting on the roofs of their houses and floating to the end of the val ley.
 The list below contains all that are known to be dead so far:
 At Nackeysville-Joseph Harter, A. Ryan, wife and two children, seven un- known persons.
 At Salona-William Emerheisen. wife and child, Mrs. Henry Snyder, Mrs. Luther Saylor, and three children, Will bur Whitney, and wife, Alexander Whit ing and wife.
 There was great amount of damage done in the western part of the county, but no lives were lost. The total dam- age in the county will be between $2, ,OOO,. 900 and s3.o0O.OO0. The loss to the county and township for bridges will be about S100, ,0OO.
