Q oroN •NEWS-RECQRD HURSDAYy. MARCH Fishermen Have Aaxious Hours (Continued from Page One) "Vary Brothers" went out and got a line aboard her amidships. But she got down in the trough of the wave and it snapped, The waves started washing her in, broadside, towards the south beach. The men aboard the "Vary 'Brothers" could do nothing more., Tensely; the owners and spectat- ors watched from the cliffs on either side of the river. Some- times the blizzard obscured their view. If she were 'washed, in like that, she'd be wrecked. The fish- ermen felt that her only chance would be to nose into the ice. The wind howled; visability was ob- scured for a few moments, And when. •next seen the "Harradell", had turned, miraculously, She was sailing straight in between - two ice -mounds just as if an unseen steersman were at the helm. In. that whole stretch .of beach below the signal point, she found the only safe place:' The terrific force of the waves about four o'clock drove her right to the beach where she sat upright. , A cable froni the "Harradell" was secured to a tree on the beacll. The prevailing west wind has packed about a mile of ice and slush in against the shore. The fishermen are locked in harbour until an east wind takes it out again. Ed Siddell's two boats, "Vary Brothers," and "Naomi" (the lat- ter operated by John R. MacLeod) have three gangs of nets out in -the lake. L. R. MacMillen with the "Maymac" has one gang, and T, and T. Castle with the Dun - gill" have two gangs set. Apart from the possibility of those who have set losing their nets, the weather has been un- Iucky for all the fishermen here. Its tough luck for them to lose the pre -Easter markets when prices are high. 4 Bunny Pyjama Bag (Blue ,and Pink) $4.95 Plush Easter Bunnies (yellow, pink, blue)— 4,95 Large Sitting $ Small.
