Several Thousands In Want.
The resident portion of Woodvale
borough is completely wiped out. The
property loss is estimated at $500, 900.
On the hills above the wrecked village is
presented the worst spectacle of the
hour. Here are clustered the several
thousand inhabitants who escaped, and
unless aid is given them soon they must
perish of want. They are so far from
Johnstown that the relief parties have
not yet reached them, and only few
provisions have been brought up to them
by the other survivors in Johnstown.
Several have lost their minds, and it il
feared that the horrors of death by star
walton, or the worst horrors of madness
must overtake them unless at once re-
lieved.
Story Of WOodvale's Destruction.
A large number of lives were lost.
mot house was wrecked nor a life
lost in the Conemaugh valley until the
lake rolled down upon us. The flood
was receding," said Abraham Gilmore.
His brother, w. j. Gilmore, was also
present. Behind them, waiting to be
coffined, lay w. J. GiImore's family.
The body of his wife with her head
burned off, the trunk of his oldest boy,
the body of his daughter, the feet of his
two youngest children and part of the
legs of his niece, the daughter of Samuel
Failes, who had been visiting at his
house, and the body of his mother-in-
law, Mrs. David Prosser. 'sThe flood
from Stony creek had come and gone.
The water was about three feet higher
than 1t was two years ago. had five
feet of water in the house and had noted
that it had gone down an inch. We
were joking hack and forth with our
neighbors. We had no warning. We
were looking up stream when Cone
maugh lake came down. We saw the
wall of water come pouring down against
the iron bridge. A moment and it struck
the town, hurting the town of Woodvale
before it and the houses went in a
twinkling."
