Break In The Hondo Repaired Water Put Back In River
A temporary dam was installed in the Hondo River about 11 miles southwest of town, restoring flow to the old channel. About half the river water had run through the break, flooding Roswell areas. The Ed Bloom land bend is the breach site, same spot as 1904. The Blooms and Browns built barriers and hayed the dam, seeking CCC help to cut a new bypass channel about an eighth of a mile long to straighten the river and prevent future breaks.
