L. Law, son of th( late Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Law Sohina, and brother of Ivan Law Whitby, sent the following lettei ta Norm Scott of the Brookdale. Kingsway Nurseries recently. Il was sent fi-arn the address "2( Sherwood Place, St. Vital - evacuated to 589 Jessie Ave., Winnipeg." Dear Sirs: You will see frorn the above address that we are among the 19,000 residents of St. Vital forced ta evacuate. 'Our bouse, which is about as high as any in the suburbs, has water covering the lot a couple of inches deep in the shallowest part. The basement bas been filled a week now. Not only St. 'rital but thousands of lots are as badly hit as we are. Imagine Oshawa ahl under water, the shallowest part barely an inch or two above water. That would be about one- tenth of what is inundated here. My business for 1950 (Nursery) is gone. Fortunately I placed no orders for nursery stock any- where. So I baven't the worries of receiving, delivering and col- Iecting from bundreds that are in the same.-condition as myseif or worse. My own small nursery of perennials has been under water now for two weeks. I bave no idea of what I can salvagc. The radio just announc- ed that the river bas reached 30 ft., 3 inches above the normal level this morning. It will need to drop five feet before we can go back to our homes. After that it will be a busy job cleaning up and salvaging wbat we can. I am helping them daily to keep pushing the water tbat is seeping in through the basement xvalls of Winnipeg Post of 'fice. A stream flows across the fioro the elevator roorn equal t h summer flow of the creek at Solina. Some flood! The losses will neyer be re- covered fuilly. It is doubtless a major disaster. Imagine the same flood cruising down King St. in Bowmanville, past the Post office and around the old market square, in a canoe with a full load, andr no scraping the bottom. I bave experienced such a tbrill [n St. Vital on St. Mary's Road near my home a week ago before the highest level was reached. Well, tbanks for the lists you heve been sending me. It is for- tupate for both of us that I placed nio orders for the spring of 1950. Eowever wbenwe get back into business again I shaîl surely be interested in more of your stock. I visual;ze the town of Bow- manville set upon hilîs that can- not be bid with boisterous streams .0 the west and east of the town. Editor's Note:- Mr. Scott in- formed the editor he will send a token sbipment of nursery stock to Mr. Law free of charge to belp rehabilitate bis nursery business.
