Our June Flood.

We read that on one occasion it rained
for forty days and forty nights, and
really we had begun to think we might
be in for repetition of that affair.
After it had rained every day for week,
and much of the time in torrents at that,
it didn't seem possible that we could
have deluge all day Sunday, but such
was the case. All streams are at about
the highest summer pitch ever seen, and
it is few times if any that they have been
so high since the famous freshet OF
March l, 1895.
North of Park Street bridge the water
is running across the road, about foot
deep in the deepest place, with swift
current.
About ten feet of the upper dam on
Stony Brook above the village went out
about six O'Clock Sunday night, but no
serious damage was done. The brook,
which ia "quick" stream, was running
good sized river for some hours.
The bridge over Stony Brook at what
is known as the Samuel King farm was
carried out, and the bridge over the
small stream by what is known as the
"Italian camp" is raised but passable.
There are bad washouts on the Hats on
the Stony Brook road.
The tremendous downpour must have
damaged planted fields along river inter
wales and on hillsides.
The dam at North Pond, Bucktield, IL
reported to have gone out.
Washouts in the roads are numerous
