women crawled over benches, fought
their way into the aisles and those
who had fallen were trampled on like
cattle.
The screams OF women and children
added to the horror of the scene and
through mere fright many persons
tainted and as they fell to the floor
were crushed to death.
Negroes who had reached the top of
the steps were pushed violently for
ward and many fell. Before they could
move others fell upon them and in if
teen minutes persons were piled upon
each other 10 a height of ten feet. This
wall of struggling humanity blocked
the entrance and the weight Of fifteen
Numbered persons was pushed against
it. More than twenty persons lying on
the steps underneath the heap of bod
les died from suffocation.
In an hour the church had been
practically cleared aud the sight
which greeted the eyes of those who
had come to aid the injured was sick

outside Of the pews, the dead bodies
OF men and women were strewed and
the cries OF the manned and crippled

the work of removing the bodies was
begun and the walls of the relatives
Of the dead who had waited on the
