dead already buried, and with the work
of relief proceeding rapidly and methodi-
cally, the streets are again assuming their
normal appearance and business is go
ing on as usual. The work Of the citi-
zens of Gainesville, both men and women,
has been heroic in the alienation of suf-
fering, and the response from Atlanta
and other cities in the shape OF supplies
and financial assistance has been no less
marked.
Physicians are now hear in sufficient
numbers to attend to all the needs OF the
injured, but there is yet great need for
antiseptics and other medical supplies.
There is urgent necessity for more
nurses.
Physicians who have visited Gaines
willie urge that all who are IN position to
do so volunteer their services at once
Transportation and board are being fur
nished all volunteers, so that while there
will be no compensation except the sat
isfaction Of doing a noble work for sur
ferfng humanity, thefe Will DO no GA

time 1t seemed all were doomed to pei
ish. But from further down the stream
the catastrophe had been witnessed and
at hand were a number OF skiffs and row
boats of different kinds. With one thought
these boats were manned and like
miniature fleet they shot out into the
swollen stream to meet the barge. El-
couragement was called to the children
and they were urged to sit down and be
quiet. This had a good effect. The res
cuing boats surrounded the barge and the
children were quickly taken from 1t and
safely landed.
