A very sad accident occurred at New Westminster, BC, on January 23rd, 1915, when Mr. John Hugh Chisholm, son of Mr. and Mrs. John A. Chisholm of Skye, Ont., was killed in a quarry. The deceased had been employed as an engineer in the British Columbia Transport Company’s quarry for over two years, and was not only a faithful employee, but was also popular among all with whom he came in contact. At the time of the accident, Mr. Chisholm was engaged on night shift. A very heavy blast was set off, which blew the whole side of the mountain into Pitt River, causing a huge tidal wave to sweep in. Everything was completely submerged, with the exception of the steam shovel on which Mr. Chisholm was employed. Mr. Chisholm was last seen about 10 minutes before the explosion. He was speaking to one of the workmen and it seems remained to see the blast go off. Immediately after they parted the explosion took place, and while Mr. Chisholm was either killed by a rock or swept away by the giant wave is unknown, his comrade was rescued. The bodies of the three victims have not been recovered and although several attempts have been made to recover them, they have so far been unsuccessful, and it is doubtful if they will ever be recovered.
