Two large bridges were washed out in Cartwright, one in Darlington, one in Clarke (in which a horse was drowned), two in Hope, one of which may be repaired, and one in Haldimand township, where a large piece of the road was also washed out. Practically all of the destroyed bridges will have to be replaced by steel and concrete structures.
