grounds were submerged early In she
evening and they are badly damaged, as
was also the bank along the Eokles farm
and river shore above the city.
The handsome new tug Norfolk q
Western. No. 1, which was on its first
trip to Norfolk from the yard of its
builders in Philadelphia did good work
on the river during the evening, with Its
powerful flash lights, which illumined
the river for miles around. The boat
was compelled to put into harbor at :
o'clock and she remained here all night.
A great many people became excited
early In the day. some being very super
stitious because of it's remarkable relA
tion to the food of '78. The terrible loss
of property and life at that time fright
ened everybody who remembered that
awful day, when they heard the bowling
winds of last night and saw the rising
waters. The tide was at it's height at 8
o'clock and soon after the water fell At
that hour the tide was five feet above
high water mark
This morning the ruins of the food
were the center Of attraction for scores Of
people The shore both above and below
the city Is strewn with wrecksge, small
boats, and broken articles of furniture.
Relic hunters started out early this morn
ing, and many novel things were found
In the private yards along Front street,
fences are down, out houses are wrecked
or washed away, and small trees are
down. In Emmanuel churchyard several
of the large willow trees were badly
damaged. The marshes all around the
city are sea Of water, and the roads Ere
in bad condition.
During the night many vessels put
into the harbor here for safety, among
them being the brig Sparkling Water, for
Philadelphia from St Johns New Bruins

The old gentleman paid no heed to
this admonition, but went on touching
the various parts of the engine
