IN PICTURES: The Flood of 1922
Few photos exist of the Assiniboine River flood of 1922, but those that do show a familiar sight: water, lots of water. The flood spills up over the river's banks, spreading down streets and surrounding homes. If you've got more historical photos from this flood, we'd love to see them. Email website@brandonsun.com.
