The train left Bolivar. Just across

great storm that so nearly Destroyed
the Texan city. Bolivar Is seventy
i've miles from Beaumont. which was
the point of the trains destination.
Before the train had Travelled far On
Its journey 1t was caught IL the storm.
Thirty miles OF the track were washed
away, and the train was left stranded
on a sandy waste. Many persons who
lived on Bolivar peninsula were saved
from death by taking refuge In the
train. After the storm subsided they
walked to Bolivar with the passengers.
but the abandoned train was left on
the prairie.
The storm bankrupted the railway.
and no effort to rescue the engine and
cars was made until 1903. Had not
