» No Property Damage " Rey‘ "ted Up to T_..‘."e Hour Last Night.

while Nova Scotia and New Brunswick suffered yesterday from the ravages of a rainstorm driven by a heavy gale which swept the Atlantic seaboard, Prince Edward Island was singularly fortunate in receiving little or no damage. Al- ﬂwugll rain fell almost continu- ouﬂy throughout the day, only in the afternoon did tho storm as- sume unusual proportions, and for y. time rain fell in torrents.

‘Pile wind blew from a southerly direction, and toward evening, when the rain ceased. grew very cold.

At a latq hour last evening no reports had been received oi dam- sge to public or private property, or to telephone or telegraph lines. in Charlottetown no damage was reported, although the storm was so severe that the funeral of the late Mr. Toombs was held up about three quarters of an hour at the

and rain lashed Nova Scotia today in a driving autumn storm that left a scattered ; trail of damage through the Province. Highways were washed out, power lines went crashing to earth, and swollen streams carried de- struction along their banks.

Brunt of the storm was felt along the Digby shore. A cloudburst washed out the drawbridge linking the is- land village of Tiverton with the mainland, and its resid- ents were forced to make the passage tonight in dorics. A passing motorist, Lloyd Blackford, narrowly escaped death as the rushing waters carried away the bridge just after his car had crossed the stream.

At the same time. the ﬂooded river undermined the cod liver oil plant of Small Brothers, and it was feared for a time the building would collapse. It was icporteil out of danger tonight, however.

In other pints of Nova. Scotia, the storms damage was not so serious. The towns of Truro and Pictou were left without electric power as wires were blown down, but service was restored later. Highways were washed out in many Here is Charles Ulm, Australian sections of the mainland. Cape flier, who this week shatmrcd Breton suffered little damage. Kingsiord-Smithis England to

25 — Seven deaths, heavy damage to bridges, highway and railway beds and conse- quent delay to road and rail traffic were left tonight in the “rake of the most de- structive rain storm New Brunswick has experienced ln years.

The dead, all lumbermen engaged in stream driving for the Pejepscot Paper Company, were: .

Robert Keswick, 20, his brother, David Keswick, 24, Eldon Campbell, 25, Law- rence Wilson, 25, all of Bass River; Alyre Richard, 25, St. Norbert; Zoel Bastaracho, 30, St. Fabien, and Fidele Coltette, 26, Upper St. Maur- ice. They were experienced woodsmen from Kent Coun- ty and none was married.

Thﬂbikd by rapidly rising waters of the swollen big Salmon River, the stream drivers were swept to their deaths from a small sand bar ‘in the middle of the river's north. west branch, four miles from Sal- mon River village and 14 miles from St. Martins, 0n the coast in St. John County. By irony of faia it was the last day of the drive.

None of the bodies had been I". covered tonight and it was believ- ed they were swept out toward! sea.

The men had finished stream- drivlng on the west bank of tho northwest branch. Attempting ‘to return to the east bank, they folmd
