Our village has at last been released
from the unusual quantity OF water which
has been flooding the townsite. The
flood was only local and was caused by
the snow blocking the ditch leading to
the river. Several cellars are full and
two house floors were covered and a
couple OF barns flooded. The land is
fast drying and several places are report
ed as fit for seeding. Much land is un-
der water yet, some being flooded by
the high condition OF the Red river,
which is rising several inches each day.
Three feet more is all that is necessary
to cause great damage.
