http://www.bnquebec.ca/en/qui_en/qui_col_digital_en.htm#street if you go
here then R for Riviere des Prairies they have a photo of L'Abord a Plouffe
bridge in 1910. I looked up noyer for drowned but can't find anything. They
also have a section accidents. There was also the Standard newspaper back
then. And under M for Murphy there's a few Murphy's here.

> Am interested in a Montreal English newspaper news report listing details
re my Grandfather William John Murphy's death by drowning Sept. 20, 1914 at
L'Abord a Plouffe on the "Back River" - Rivieres des Prairies. Would prefer
to have a copy of the actual article and his obituary, or at least a
transcript of both. Not sure whether it was in the Gazette or Star, or maybe
some other newspaper that may have been around at that time.
