that in Santa Rosa the greatest loss of life
occurred from earthquake and FIRE, even II
this unfortunate city does not lead in the
actual number of victims. In letter
received here from a former Los Angeles
man the writer said in part:
This town is in awful shape. There Is
not single brick or stone building stand
ing and scores of fine desidences are in
ruins Fires broke out I'm the business
district right after the shock and burned
dead and living alike. There were three
big hotels while all OF them fell, but one
took fire. From the st. Rose they took out
nine bodies today. They found a little girl
in these ruins She was unhurt but very
hungry and thirsty, having been buried
four nights and days. The timbers had
lodged so that they protected her. Cases
of this kind have been numerous. There
undoubtedly would have been a great many
lives saved II they could have gotten out in
the first twenty-four hours. but the task
was so great that it was an imDossibllity.
