Flood Recedes As Virden Creek Floods Cedar River Region
The Cedar River and nearby creeks rose sharply with Virden and Black Hawk creeks swelling as much as 18 inches above normal. Rescue squads saved Mr and Mrs A Owens from rising water on Dundee street while residents prepared for continued flood risk along La Porte road and nearby farms. Water breached basements and inundated fields, with crops and gladiolus bulbs damaged as damp conditions persisted. A separate Paris report notes a chimpanzee breaking chains and causing panic at a Montmartre cafe before being recaptured.
