FIVE BRIDGES CONE
OUT AT WESTFIELD
When Waters From Cloudburst
Rushed Down Sides Of Jay Peak In
Northern Vermont.

Westfield, june h. Waters from
Jay Peak, where il is thought there
was cloudburst, caused five bridges
to be carried out here early this morn
ing. The streams from the mountains
flowing into the Missisquoi river
rose very rapidly at seven o'clock.
Three roads to North Troy are now
impossible because the bridges are
down. while the cost of repairing the
roads will be greater than that of pre-
pairing thehm for summer traffic, which
work had recently been completed.
The damage was confined to few
miles along the Missisquoi valley
where damage to crops and meadows
inundated is estimated at several thou
sands of dollars.
