Upset in the Gale A canoe voyage ends with drift and rescue near Nanaimo
Siwash canoe carrying three men and two women from a northern cannery station was driven by a squall below Departure Bay. The craft sank and all occupants were tossed into the sea. After four hours they reached shore, improvised repairs, dried by a bush fire, and continued toward Cape Mudge. One woman was saved at the bottom of the canoe, and later all reached safety with rifles and provisions lost. The group then traveled down the Gulf toward Nanaimo. The incident was recounted with the man denying whiskey aboard. The report also covers military match results and local notices, including a church visit and public debt reminders.
