PERIOD this was the terminal point for
all trains from the south, as they could
go no further owing to washout at
Knowlton, and all passengers were
obliged to remain here until regular
time for trains going SOUTH this had
the effect OF making boarding houses
and places of hang OUT in general, in
good demand This was the most dis
astrous flood, throughout this section

lection of, coming at this time of year,
