Storm Damages
Michigan Pier
Pier at Simmons Bathing Beach Suffers
Extensive Damages From
Stormy Lake.

Damage estimated at between $500
and $500 was done to the pier jutting
out into the lake from the Simmons
Bathing beach in the storm of Saturday
night. The stormlashed lake threw
breakers over the pier gradually weak
ening part of the structure, part of it
giving way.
Conservative estimates of mariners
who were out inspecting the pier were
in the neighborhood Of $1,000. The dam
age done to the pier does not offer
any menace to navigation. 1t is thought
that immediate steps will be taken to
repair the damage done.
