Some of the sidelights of the worst flood in the history of this section are given in the following \word snap- shots\ selected at random from stories heard from various quarters: Road was washed out and the bridge lowered at one end near the home of Eugene Spencer at Lower Genegants- let. Cars going up that road up until Friday had to drive through the creek as In the horse and buggy days. Road was washed out badly near Nathan Oakley's. He and neighbors crawled into the sluice and cleaned out the stones and gravel and then filled the road with stones to make it passable. Brewster Garage Phone 19 Brewster, N. Y. 11935-The Studeb»ker Corp. NEW 1935 STUDEBAKER CHAMPIONS A young man by the name of De- Bolie from Durham, N. c, on his way to summer school at Ithaca, met an avalanche of stones and water near the home of O. S. Windsor at Oene- gantslet. He was forced to leave his car and spend the night at the home of Henry Excell. Monday morning, he succeeded in getting his car started and drove over the stones where once had been a road. The last the resi- dents of that section saw of him, he was on his way to Ithaca. He said he had been working with the U. S. Soil Erosion Service but that was the first time he had met soil erosion face to face. Henry Excell who lives at Gene- gantslet said that the rush of bould- ers and water down the road shook his house like the rush of a giant train. Mrs. G. S. Windsor who has a sum- mer home at Genegantslet said the snakes and meadow moles were plenti- ful in her door yard the next morning after the flood. The place is on high ground and the vermin used it as an escape from the water. A small pile of lumber on the flat near the Windsor home at Genegant- slet was carried up over the road and left by the side of a tree. The pile was in perfect order and not a stick missing. It is said that land to the amount of several cars was washed from the pasture and woodland of the farm of Gerald Hagaman. This land bordered on the Genegantslet creek below Beardsley's mill.
