THE MANY DISASTERS IN RICHMOND.


At the opening of this new year it is not
without nournful interest to look back at
the great disasters that have befallen Rich
mond since it became city. In 1911 the
Theatre, on Broad street where the Monu-
mental Church now stands, was destroyed
by fire, and u persons, including the Gov.
ernor of Virginia, were burned to death. Dn.
ring the war, besides the sufferings usual In
d besieged city, the ammunition factory on
Browns Island exploded in 1853, killing %
young girls and males, including Rey. j.
II. Woodcock, engaged there. In 1850. at
the evacuation, nearly the entire busi.
ness portion Of the city was destroyed
by fire. In 1868. at political ceiebra-
tion on Mayo's Island, the bridge broke
down, killing Colonel james h. Branch,
one Of our first citizens, and four ctner per-
sons. The year fs70 was thick WIN disas'
ters. In April, the flooring OF the court-
room at the Capitol gave way, killing oI,
and wounding over 100 persons. AieW
months afterwards, q large portion OF: tle
city was submerged by food, causing
great destruction Of property; ana on
Christmas morning, the SpotsWooo hothis
with the valuable block Of BUILDINGS aqs
ioinin0 waa dastrnpad hp A.~y~sass- "aGns
human beings burned 70 death, besides
four never heard from, and supposed TO
have shared the same fate.
But it is comfort to us;al to know that
these disasters have never cast down! our
people, and that they still look hopefully
for prosperity to Him Of whom the Psalm.
ist has said /: "Thoush He slay me, yet WIZ
trust in Him." - s5.-'s',.''''
