for the hundreds OF suffering survivors. There Is
only one subject talked anywhere In Western Mas.

caused such universal grief and mourning.
Mingled with general expressions Of sorrow there
are many involuntary expressions Of indignation
towards the corporation which constructed and
maintained the flmsy reservoir which has swept
away so many thrifty villages and caused the loss
OF SO many valuable lives.

Nearly every member of the Association is
