98 YEARS AGO TODAY John Edward Power. Lost in the woods, North West Arm July 24 1921. Aged 13 years. Here is what happened (a thread.) @HolyCrossHali@CaCemeteryHist
The Morning Chronicle noted that July 24 was hot and sunny. It was a busy day for bathers on the NW Arm. “The single and other picnicing spots on the arm were yesterday taxed to capacity.” Photos and clippings via @NS_Archives
