Storm on the open plain almost capsized the oar boat
Piven te Kaie:ka journals describe a storm striking the starboard quarter near Sand Island. The crew escaped by moving to the Seward side and using the anchor and cable to keep the boat from filling as tarpaulin covered lockers kept water out. After about 40 minutes the storm ceased and the river calmed to glass. They note a small trading fort where Bennet of St Louis traded with the Otteans and panies near Neesh-nah-ba-to-na. Several men suffer boils and fevers.

State urges local agencies to handle track derailment aftermath
IDOT said about 30 employees logged 250 hours during the derailment and estimated pay costs around 10000 dollars with higher totals as interstate damage is tallied. Authorities plan to bill Canadian National Railway for reimbursement while cleanup is led by railroad officials and local, county, and state law enforcement. Detours were set at West Frankfort and Benton, traffic backed up for miles, and Benton, West Frankfort, and Lesser departments reported substantial overtime. No toxic materials were involved, though a similar February 2003 Tamaroa derailment released toxic vapor and evacuated 1000 residents.
