Some departments of the United

vile were obliged to shut down be-
cause of high water and the Shetucket
mill had to shut down in part for the
same reason.
In many places between Baltic and
Norwich the low places along the riv-

could be learned on Wednesday eve
ming no srious damage had resulted
from the ovorf1~---
At Baltic the flats and sayles fielf

the Baltic club was also about a foot
under water. Several of the cellars
In the houses on the flats were flood
ed and in several of the hen houses

IN the trees. The Baltic mill eontin-
ued to operate all day, but depended
mostly on steam power to run the ma
chimes, the water having flooded the
wheel pit.
At oecum the Tetoisett mill con-
tinued to operate all day but there
also steam power was depended upon
TO operate. the machines. The highest
water In years was experienced here
ana shortly after seven o'clock it was
not1ceq that the water was starting to
low into the cloth room and cloth
storeroom and men were set to remov-
ing the cloth and other things In the
room that might be damaged by wa
ter. The water continued to rise until
ABOUT o'clock in the afternoon when
1t started to recede.
Norwich bulletin., 1922-03-09

Tuesday nights southwest storm,
with its streaks of heavy rain, aug
mented by the melting snow brought
the highest water Of the season in the
Shetucket river. AS far as rainfall in
Norwich went measurements by the
water departments rain guage at the
court house did not come up to expec-
tattons of any one who happened to
get caught out in some of the heavi-
est gusts of wind and rain. This show
ed for Norwich only 10 of an inch of
rainfall Some of the officials thought
this small showing was accounted for
by the high wind which blew the
rain past the gauge too fast to let 1t
fall into the mouth of the cylinder
that Is meant to receive the rain.
The recipttation in the country
roundabout and the water from the
melting snow, however, had its effect
on the Shetucket river and its tribu-
taries. Starting to rise shortly after
midnight on Tuesday the water in the
Shetucket river continued to climb at
an alarming rate and in some places
was reported as rising about ten inches
per hour after 5 o'clock Wednesday
morning. The water crept UP the banks
inch by inch until late Wednesday at :
ternoon when Its high point was reach
ed.
Under the Laurel Hill bridge by 6
o'clock Wednesday night there was a
miniature presentation of the Niagara
whirlpool rapids, the city dock at the
