| 1931-09-23≥ | By 23 September 1931 (the issue date), the paper reported: "The water tank at the station at Alexandria was struck by lightning and some of the boards split but no serious damage was done." The same item reports that Highway No. 34 between Alexandria and Lancaster "was blocked for four hours last night when four large cedar trees were torn out by the wind". Filed on the Alexandria Water Tower at the operator's direction, who created it as it existed in Canada Atlantic times; the item says only 'the water tank at the station at Alexandria'. | Ottawa Citizen 1931-09-23(Transcribed by Colin J.
