creek. Knowing the country well, he
thought he could cut out the big
streams by going around side roads,
only to find bridges washed out and
roads under water. After travelling
40 miles and spending hours doing 1t,
he got his cook in the kitchen, not in
time for any breakfast, but for late
lunch.
Bill Hubert rode forth on horseback
to see how his land lay and got to the
artistic and rustic bridge across the
driveway to his entrance in time to
see 1t swept away. along with more
than a mile Of new post and rail fence
he had built this Summer after another
was washed away during the Spring
flood.
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Sabin and
Mr.. and Mrs. Walter Fred spent much
time telephoning friends, as Goose
Greek roared all around them and
they couldn't get out to get mail or
supplies. The mail carriers could
carry no mail that day, 80 had a little
rest

beneath rushing waters as they vert
told the crossing would not be SAT-
until the gate was visible.
