“Winter Scenes in North Country,” Toronto Globe. October 15, 1932. Page 1 --- The terrific blizzard which struck Northern Ontario, and which overwhelmed the seven on Larder Lake, is depicted above as it struck Thornloe, in the electoral district of Timiskaming South. William R. Agar of Thornloe, who sent in these pictures, in an accompanying letter tells of stalled motor cars and blocking off the Ferguson Highway. The upper picture is real old-time winter, and in the lower a car is being towed to dry land. Old-time settlers say the storm was a record-breaker for October.
