The Cyclone Stricken People of Emory Need
Assistance.

EMORY, March 81
To the Editor OF the statesman:
Through your columns we desire to
make known to those who are favor
ably situated the misery and suffering
of many worthy families In our vicln-
ity. On last Saturday evening our
citizens noticed two clouds bearing
down upon us, and it was but short
time till seething, whirling funnel
shaped cloud, filled with shooting
balls of fire, passed over the western
parC OF our town, resembling NOV
ing he'll upon earth, leaving in its
track, 300 yards wide, not single
house-no, not a change of clothing,
not an article of furniture, not bite
to eat, not covering for the naked;
men killed, women and tender chill
dren mangled and torn, and the air
filled with the cries of the helpless.
The misery of these stricken families
appeals to the charity of the world. A
little of the abundance with which
God has blessed you will be great
deal to them. Local help is doing
everything possible but it is totally
inadequate. B. M MCMAHONE,
Secretary of Relief Committee.
