The Bayfield river, fed by swollen' streams, went on a rampage and carried great trees, logs, limbs, eta, out into the lake in its muddy current. It rose in height level with the fishermen's docks. They were nervous about their boats and had to tie then more securely. Never, do they vemember:'the river being so high at this tune of year. The Goderich and Clinton roads were impassable owing to wash guts and others were too soft to traverse. The foot bridge between Maxwell's house and ,their refreshment stand was washed away and there was a small cave in on the north :approach to the foot bridge. 10 Preston Field Gardens Edinburgh Scotland April 6th.
