FOUND WIFE KILLED
AFTER COAST RAID
German Shells Struck Home,
Killing Wife and Baby
in Night.

BRoADSTAIRS, England, April p
An example of what happens when a
German squadron appears of the Eng
lish coast and drops a few shells into
a sleeping community is vividly told
by Horace Morgan; one of the suffer-
ers whose wife and child were killed
by German shell in the recent raid
Of the German destroyer feet upon
the placid summer resort town Of
Broadstairs.
Il was preparing for bed when
heard a number OF explosions" said
Morgan. The sky was lit up with
star shells. L decided to walk down
toward the waterfront and see what
was going on. i had my hand on the
doorknob when two shells burst al
most simultaneously against the
house. l went back into the kitchen
while a cloud of dust and plaster
began to fill the room. As l walked
over to the staircase part of the
framework of the stairs fell down
into the room.
Room Filled with Bricks.
Il. heard the children crying up
stairs and called to my wife. She
didn't answer. The eldest boy, eight
years old, came tumbling down the
broken staircase. asking Where's
mother" The whole room was now
filled with brick and rubbish. l push
ed the boy out of the door and told
him to run over to his grandmother's
as fast as he could and ask for help.
Then / ran upstairs. I caught hold
OF another boy. He didn't seem in
jured, although he Is now in the hos
pital. 1 told him also to go to his
grandmother's. Then / found my lit
tie gtrly lying half conscious at the
top OF the stairs, her forehead terribly
bruised She revived as 1 picked her
up and 1 sent her too to grandmother.
Another girl, Doris, who has since
died, got out of bed herself but could
not reach the stairs. / called to her
to come to me, but she cried and said:
L can't daddy, I'm hurt
Il went in, brought heR downstairs,
handing her to one of the boys who
was still lingering near the door. He
carried her to her grandmother's.
Taken Away DARED.
Then at the top OF the stairs 1
found my wife, half covered with
plaster and debris. She was dead.
raised her in my arms. She still held
the baby and the little one groaned
and seemed still alive, although she,
too, had gone, took the baby up,
rushed outdoors and handed her to
the first man l met
81 went back to my wife and stood
there dazed and helpless for a few
moments until a young man came
bringing three doctors, who took me
away. The house was hit broadside
in the middle OF the wall There was
a hole four feet in diameter in the
wall and partitions throughout the
upper part of the cottage were shat
tered. Where my wife was she met
the full force of the she'll She was
apparently standing by the baby's
bed, about three feet from the wall.
She had just picked the baby out OF
its cradle"
