The w. A. Joyce home across
the river has been having its
share of excitement connected
with the high water of the Column
bia. For nearly week the house
was completely surrounded by
water and the only mean of get
ting away from the house was by
row boats which were kept tied to
the house. Had the water raised
foot more the house would have
been in danger of being carried
away as the current was quite
swift and spread for a hundred
feet or more back of the house.
