Besides the loss of life it was likely to take days to assess the damage to boats and fishing gear, expected to run into hun- dreds of thousands of dollars.

Haggard fishermen straggled into various ports all day Satur- day with tales of courage and terror. Some survivors had lashed themselves to masts. Some had ‘seen relatives swept over- board by mountainous waves.

“It was blowing awful dirty,” said 43-year-old Jack Doucet.

and his two sons aboard \his boat after the Doucet craft capsized, said, “it was the worst storm I have ever seen. Waves rose up| like mountains all around us.”

Saturday giant waves 50 to 60 feet high still lashed the horse- shoe shaped breakwater here that | forms a quiet haven for fishing boats from such adjacent com- munities as Baie Ste. Anne, Bay du Vin, Hardwicke and Edcum- inac.

The fishing was good. “That's how so many boats got caught,’’| said Mr. Bransfield. “It was a) pretty rosy picture. If it had| been poor fishing a lot of boats| wouldn't have gone out.” a

Some got back all right after! taking shelter or riding out the} storm. Others were still unre-| ported Sunday night. Bits and/ pieces of wreckage had been! washed ashore or towed in by) searching fishermen, many of, whom had missed drowning by; a fluke of nature.

Crowds of curious poured into/| Escuminac Sunday along with’ scores of relatives from all parts of eastern Canada.

Along the route were ‘parked two hearses, one bearing a rough ' wooden box, the other a coffin. |

In nearby Baie Ste. Anne there were mounds of dirt in the cem-' etery where graves had been dug for the dead. Inside the Catholic! church men had shed their rough fishermen’s clothes and donned their Sunday best for a brief hour | of prayer before returning to the search. But ther - was less hope as the hours passed. ‘Whatever | come in now will be dead.” said Yvon Durelle, the Baie Ste. Anne | boxer-fisherman. |

Searchers, alarmed by the storm, began scouring the shore- | line at dawn Saturday for wreck- age and bodies.

Fishermen who survived the storm took their boats out Sun- day to search for their missing comrades. RCAF search planes were hampered by the difficulty of distinguishing the searching; boats from the lost ones.
