LETTER TO THE EDITOR Recalls Incident tr At Point Clark • Dear Mr. Thompson; • The news item about the tidal wave at Point Clark reminded me of something we witnessed some years ago when we were holiday- ing 'in the /vIurdie cottage. One afternoon we realized that the water had 'gone away out and left yaids and yards •of mud and stones, along the shoie. It gave us eerie feeling to see and to wond- er what caused it. Some time later I read about such rare occur. rences in Dr. Fox's book, "The Bruce Beckons". It is called a seiche., I have just consulted the dictionary which gives the pronunciation as 'saish' and says- "an oscillation of the•surface of the water of a ,of or landlocked sea varying in period from a few minutes to several hours. It is thought to be initiated by local variations in'atmospheric pressure , and perpetuated :by the oscilla- tions of the water surface, after. the .inequalities of atmospheric pressure have disappeared.." There must be simpler words to explain the phenomenom but I have quoted Webster... The one Dr. Fox described occurred on a hot , heavy , threatening sort of day when everyone was tense and short tempered and feeling that something dreadful-could happen -at any' moment. I thought you might be interest- ed in what , I had seen.and remem- bered when I read the paper. Sincerely , • Margaret. Pritchard. BRECKLES - MANN .Mr. and Mrs.' Lorne Mann, R.
