Boat Upset Claims Five At Smith's Bay Ontario
On May 29 at Smith's Bay, eight miles from Pictou Ontario, Alexander Lindsay took his brother's three children ages 8 12 and 13 out on the bay for fishing. The boat was found overturned with all four bodies recovered in seven feet of water. Mrs. William Ingraham was later found dead near the same spot, believed to have boarded Lindsay's boat from the bank.
