have already begun the work of
= the full extent of the
srccor and-~lsAAAGi~A11
disaster, as far as details are OBJ
tainabfe, will be known in few
days. There were doubtless scores
of lives lost which will never be
recorded in the final summing up
Of the losses. The loss of prop
erty cannot even be estimated and
will probably never be known, but
it will run into the millions. In
the face of this appalling disaster
the great state of Texas stood mo-
mentarily paralyzed, for there is
probably not section in the state
which does not possess families
oppressed by the possibility OF
personal grief when the details are
known. But now the people have
awakened from the stupor produced
by the sudden and direful news
and from every section relief is
being rushed to the unfortunate
victims. From outside the state
succor is being sent voluntarily and
soon all present needs will be sup
piled. But time alone can heal
the heartaches and fill the void
which Saturdays disaster has left
in hundreds even thousands oi
Texas homes.
