Lewis Dam Breaks Crumbling Mill Wall After Flood
The Lewis dam failed due to sustained high water causing part of the mill wall to cave in on Sunday afternoon. The damage is estimated near a thousand dollars. Theo Woodward and the foreman narrowly escaped injury as they had just left the area moments before the collapse. A Rock Island train passing between Anita and Wiota rode through water on the track after intense rains formed a lake-like stretch. The dam disaster worsens Mr Beavers loss, complicating the planned return of the mill property to the Woodwards by March.
