From Hall's Lake News by Doreen Stinson, Minden Progress, May 26, 1976:
"Everyone is still in a state of shock following Sunday's tragic mishap at the causeway at Big Hawk Landing which collapsed as Mrs. Margaret Hickman and her two grandchildren walked over it. The Hickmans have been cottagers on Big Hawk for years and she will be sadly missed by neighbours and family. The Stanhope Firemen were on duty at the disaster area within a few short minutes and carried on a varied number of helpful tasks with other volunteers.
