WASHOUTS AROUND. CLINTON.
Several washouts are reported RS a
result of the sudden thaw ancl. several ma,
of the main roads leading to the town
were impassable for a few days. Near
Holmesyille a small bridge has been
washed away and part of the rcir d
washed out. At Harvey's on'the Base
line. there is another washout. The
new bridge, connecting Godericla
Township and Colborne, just north of
Holmesvilte, was made 100 feet shorter
than the old one, and as a result the
small bridge on the Goderich Town-
ship side has been washed away.
There would also have been serious
trouble on tin? London Road near Olin-
ton.had repaints not been made to the
bridge last yea& As it is -the flow of
water and ice was immense.
