learned that great part of the place
has been destroyed and that probably
q large number of citizens have beer
drowned,
Shawneetown is seventy-five miles
below Evansville, on the Ohio river
1t is situated in valley of extremely
low land, with hills sliirting it in the
rear, and with twenty-five foot
levee front running from hill to hill
The town is very much in the posi-.
ton of fortified city, and when the
leVee gave way mile above town
under the pressure of the river very
high river, the water shot through a
twenty-foot opening anu struck the
place like hurricane, sweeping
everything before it.
Houses were turned and tossed
about like boxes. The people werI
not warned of tn break, and for thai
reason many were caught. Those al
home sought refuge in second storiel
and on housetops. Those in the
streets We're carried refore the ava
lanche of water, and probably ma
jority were drowned.
Citizens came rom the place by
skiffs to telephone several milei
away and asked for aid from Evans,
vile. They said that more than 2O(
people We're drowned, and they had
reason to believe it would reach SOL
or even 1000
The water stands from twenty t.
thirty feet all over the town.
There is, of course, no fire and ne
lights in the place, and total dark.
ness envelopes the desolate scene. Con
sequently it was impossible for Their
to have anything like uefnite infor
nation. The men quickly left thu
