wandering about in rags on the verge of

their homes and resorted to begging on the

time. and were so weak that when he offered
them food some of them lacked strength
to eat. In all the public places of the vii

4 Freshet Causes Serious Damage In
Bennington County and In Eastern
New York.

4 Freshet Causes SERIOUS Damage i'm
Bennington County and In Eastern
New York.
There was bad freshet at Bennington
on Thursday night of last week, the waters
of the WallOOmsac reaching a higher pitch
than at any time since 1869. For long
distance the walls of the river are com
pletely washed ont, and it will cost the
town, the village and individuals hundreds
of dollars to repair the damage. Al mid
night, when the anxiety as to the outcome
of the freshet was at its height, a bright
light was seen at the east end of the viii
lage, but no one dared to leave his property
to investigate. In the morning it was
learned that the Crawford ~ Carney shoddy
mill was a total loss. The first ntmation
the man who had charge of the mill at
night had of the high water was when the
building began to settle. He opened the
front door and seeing the river running out
of its course jumped into the stream and
escaped. The mill tipped over and was
burned, the fire starting from the lighted
lamps. A break i'm the river at Coopcrs
upper mill flooded part of the village,
and will necessitate extensive repairs. The
Valentine bridge was carried away and
causing an overflow which filled the cellars
on School street. Considerable damage
also resulted on North and other streets.
Fortunately the dams did not give way.
There was some damage in the Valentine
mill stock room. Other Bennington cOun-
ty towns suffered severely, and it is said
that in Pownal not bridge is left standing.
The destruction by high water in eastern
New York and along the upper Hudson
was more serious than in the vicinity of
Bennington. There were three cloud
bursts, one at Sand mill and the others at
Berlin and near Poestenkill, which con
verified the small streams into raging tor
rents. The devasted country presents a
sad spectacle On all sides are the debris
of wrecked buildings and bridges, with here
and there the bodies of horses, cattle, hogs
and chickens. Nearly all the bridges were
destroyed. and many dams We're carried
away. The roads are in bad condition,
being eXcavated in some places to depth
of ten feet. At Berlin the water rose so
rapidly that people barely had time to reach
a place of safety, and one or two were
drowned. Two lives We're lost at other
places. \ part Of the village of Petersburg
is wrecked. score of dwellings and work
shops being washed from their foundations.
The damage to the railroads was also St.
we're. The total damage in eastern New
York will amount to thousands of dollars.
