A

swept
over
the

yesterday,
causing
untold
suffering

many

in

In

26

as

In

and
many
of

were
not

to
survive.
The
property

is
variously
estimated
at
from
one

a
half
to
two

it
probably
will
exceed
that

"Canadians
are
a

and

people,
and
their

is

largely
to
the

they
live,"

Rupert
yesterday,

he
referred
to

that

declared
the
bishop.
Successive
conferences
were
being
held
with
that
end
in

He
referred
to
the
idea
that
the
aim
was
"to

suggested
that

Peace
was
founded
upon

and
was
the
result
partly
of
human

He
referred
to
the
fact
that

If
