You could not hold onto nothing neither man or woman was strong enough - the shaking would knock you lose like knocking hicror nuts out of a tree. I don't know how we lived through it. When it got day break you could see the damage done all around. Some people that the home was not built to strong did not. We will have to hunt our animals.
Every body is scared to death.
I made my mind to one thing. If this earth quake or what ever it was did not happen in the Territory of Indiana then me and my family is moving to Pigeon Roost as soon as I can get things together. You cannot fight it cause you do not know how. It is not something that you can see. The earth quake or what ever it is come again today.
