Union County courier. [volume] (Elk Point, Union County, D.T. [S.D.]) 187?-1913, 1890-04-02

TWO miles IN the country, where the people
wondered what IL meant. FGrtunately
there was not person killed in Jefferson
vile, although some were badly hurt.
Scores Of business houses and residences
were more or less damaged, some stores be-
ing nearly demolished. Dozens Of people
had marvellous escapes from instant death.
According to the latest reports this evening
II 10 hoped none OF those injured will die.
The damage to steamers on the river front
was considerable. It IL believed tonight
that the lose and damage to property In
Jeffersonvilis will aggregate fully $500, 900.
