which cost the lives of probably three
score persons, turned bottom up in
midlake 300-foot steel vessel with its
crew, wrecked or grounded numerous
other craft, and caused a loss as yet
unestimated, but which will run into
the millions.
The full details of the storm, which
swept from the westernmost end of
Lake Superior to the eastern shore Of
Lake Erie, became known only today,
when survivors began arriving in vari-
GUS ports with tales of hardships and
heroic rescues seldom equaled on the
lakes.
On land the storm hit hardest at
Cleveland, Ohio, where five persons
were killed and 10 others lost, and
where 100000 damage was caused
to property
The death toll, with many ports un-
reported, is told thus:
Twenty-Five or 40 probably drowned
in the overturning of a freighter found
floating in Lake Huron.
Five bodies washed ashore at st. Jo-
seph, on the Canadian side of Lake
Huron flour had belts marked "Wex-
ford and one wore belt marked
"London").
Three bodies washed ashore on the
west shore of Lake Huron.
Two bodies washed ashore opposite
the position of the overturned boat.
Six members of lightship drowned
in Lake Erie, near Buffalo, N. Y.
Seven bodies washed ashore at Ket-
tie Point, Lake Huron, and seven other
bodies rolling on the decks of a ship
wrecked there.
