The longest period of fog ever reported in the Bay of Fundy occurred at Saint John in July of 1833. The fog lasted twenty-eight days and resulted in three buggy accidents, the accidental death of an unlucky Mr. Morris Ryder, who stepped off a dock by mistake, and the migration of fifty-six residents who packed up and moved upriver to Grand Bay and never returned.
