impossible to rescue them. 1t is not
likely that even their dead bodies will
be recovered for two or three weeks.
No attempt to compile a list of the
dead has been made. The people of
the town are panic-stricken, as the
mountain is still scattering rock and
no one knows how soon the disaster
may be duplicated. The uninjured in
habitants are divided between their
desire to stay and bury the dead and
the impulse to seek a place of safety
