Landslide at Maple Ridge reshapes Fraser River banks
Despatch from New Westminster reports a massive landslide along the Fraser River near Maple Ridge. George and Justus Howison lose acres as a ten foot high south bank collapses, a ten foot wave strikes the opposite bank, and a river channel shifts to a narrow eighth of a mile. One man, William Edge, dies days after being swept by debris. The event prompts relocation plans and warnings of further slides as cracks reveal concealed strata and blue clay under loose gravel.
