1,050,002,000 cubic feet of water will
be created by the construction of the
’dsm at Stevenson station. and. lying
as it will between the beautiful hills
"of New Haven and airfield counties.
it promises to present one of the finest
scenic spectacles in Connecticut. with
possibilities of summer homes. motor
boating and fascinating automobile
drives. The engineers‘iigured yester-
day that the dam would be completed
and the basin ready for flooding about
next January. The gigantic project
had its begiuing in the summer of
1917.
To make this possible. the power
company found it necessary to re-
locaic um school houses—one in
Southbux-y and the other in Oxford—
a cemetery. a church and twenty-one
miles of highway. and construct s
300.000 concrete blrdge in addition to
that which will be provided on top
oi the dam. Two other bridges will
be removed.
Cemetery Removed.
Thorn were {00 bodies in the River-
side comicry. lying beside the lions.
aionic. in the ton of Oxford. and all‘
wcrc carefully removed to a beautiful
knoll, almost directly above the old
burying ground. overlooking the aura
lo be flooded by the great lake. The
headstones in the old graveyard were
erected in the new cemetery in the
same relalhe positions. The first to
be buried in the new cemetery since
its establishment was Miss Hits A.
Stowe. a Red Cross girl. who died in
the service at (‘amp Dix. last July.
and whose body was buried with mili-
taly honors. Miss Stowe had thirty.
the relatives in llll" old cemetery and
- she had personally supervised the rc~
moval of their remains to the new
.plm. ‘ ‘
The Stevenson l'nion.3|eihodist
church. in the town of Oxford. was
situated on lhe cast bank of the Hon--
satanic. within the area to be flooded.
The congregation readily accepted a
pmposal of the power company to re-
place their old church with a comfort-
able. new building. on a hillside ad-
joining the Riverside cemetery. and
commanding an excellent view of the
lake that is to be. The church will?
be ready for occupancy in about (“‘0‘
months. In replacing the Oxford‘
school house. the power company:
found it necessary to double its sise'
to accommodate children of the 6.30
laborers and engincers engaged in the
undertaking.

It has been necessary for the com-
pany to go back fourteen miles from,
the dam and rcgrsdc the property of
residents preparatory to flooding the
district. and if has had the cifect of
putting some of the farms directly on;
the lake front with excellent oppor—
tunities for motor boating and bath-‘
inz. Timber has been cut around what
is to he the shores oi the lake for s
distance,of tweniycight miles. The
so-cslled Sandy Hook bridge. over the‘
Housafonic. on the “’sterbury-Dam
bury trunk line highway. has been .
raised eleven feel to pm if safely
above the level of the lake. and a new
bridge of concrete. twenty—three fed-i .

have been raised above the proposed
flow line.
The power company is the owner or _
a seventeen-mile transmission line to
Waterbury.
With favorable weather conditions. -
it. may be possible to transform the
vast basin into a lake in four days.:'
but the engineers are figuring on no
definite period of time for the flooding'
of the area. f
