have been wiped out, are afraid
to return to town lest they be

feel the blasting effect of this
fearful hail storm, the worst that

order to render all the assistance
in its power, the Southern Rail

Der of demonstrators and farm
experts into this territory for the
purpose of comforting with those
afflicted and to tell them Just

what crops to plant in order to
