When the searchers went into the
ruined zone they tramped over snow
piled high in every direction which
delayed their work. An hour of sun
shine that had heartened them was
followed at noon by a heavy fall of
snow with signs in the sky that
blizzard was near. There has been no
accurate estimate as to the chances
of the six thousand wounded. Now re-
ports are, however, that a large per-
centage of those in hospitals will re-
cover.

Men wanted Immediately at Fair
view cemetery" This advertisement
in the morning papers, called atten-
ton to still another problem-finding
men to dig graves for the hundreds
of victims of the catastrophe.
Health authorities. working in CO.
operation with the general relief COM
mittee. made it plain that burial must
not be delayed, for with thousand
or more bodies in morgues and else
where, the danger in delay was ap-
parent TO all.
But under the plan already in ef-
feet there was no delay, for laborers
were assigned to the cemeteries. and
men who never had expected to do
that sort of work went about the task
as cheerfully as conditions permit
ted.
Little groups of sorrowful people
went silently to cemeteries adjacent
to the Richmond district, utterly
wiped out by flames, and laid away
their dead, without friends in attend
ance, and with the commitment rites
omitted. There were not enough min
listers to officiate for all. There were
not enough pallbearers and not
enough hearses. Pungs laden with
collins went SLOWLY Over the anow
covered streets and within sight of
the section where hundreds of other
bodies were still buried in the ruins.
This city, facing the most serious
days of its life, had no time to stand
about open graves and the dead
We're. laid away with none there but
the folk from homes now but a mass
of ruins. One general service was
held for all.
