DESCRIBES HORROR

and killing. manning and iniuring thou
sands Of people-quick as fell the cloud
Of night and despair, almost as quick
came the offers OF help and assistance
/ all over North America
I'VE can never adequately thank The
people of Massachusetts and New York
and the other States of the Union There
are many Nova Scotians in Massschu-
setts and other New England States, and
doctors. nurses and specialists came like
angels of mercy to render help and com
fort TO the injured and dying: social
workers and housing specialists came
with advice and practical help.
And assistance was urgently needed.
Only the doctors and nurses who at
tended the thousands OF cases al the
emergency hospitals can tell the tale OF
suffering, the heorlrending, despairing
scenes that occurred while thousands of
men. women and children lay suffering
unto death.
"The explosion occurred at 9f5 on
December e. The operators on the Mail
had Just about gotten into their stride
for The day when the concrete floor be-
gan 90 tremblc and the lights began 10
dim Then a rumble like thunder was
heard and every pane of glass flew out
of The building Everybody in the Mail
building thought the boiler had gone
up, but when they escaped 20 the streets
and saw people bleeding from gashes in
The head and face they began 10 think
that the Germans had shelled the town.
"ll soon became apparent that some
thing far more serious had happened
II was "a caeo NJ every man for him
self Those who lived In The northern
part of the city made haste TO get home.
The farther north they got, lhe greater
the property damage The streets were
filled with the refugees who had es-
capped from The explosion.
Before many persons could get 60
the scene Of The accident, he order
came that second explosion was
likely TO happen. and everybody was
ordered TO open places away from the
scene Of the disaster
Meanwhile. hundreds were lying
dead amidst ruined homes while hum
dreds were perishing pinned down
under wreckage Of buildings unable To-
escape, and with but few 10 help them
70 was not long before nre had finished
the work of The fearful explosive, and
when rescuers poured into the ruined
district very few unforlunaies were lefl
alive.
Those who We're taken out Of The
ruins alive were blinded and MANNED
for life. The scenes were horrible be-

growsome scenes at the morgues will
never be forgotten. 10 all seemed Liked
q horrible nightmare. But day after
day brings some new story Of suffering
and torture almost beyond belief.
zone American journalist has said
that before half the story Of this ter
rible disaster can be told 10 viii have
passed into the realm Of forgotten
events. But the people Of Halifax can
never forget.
There Will be many evidences left
10 tell the tale of the frightful event.
There will be living sightiess men,
women and children cropping their way
into fulurily: there will be sad-faced
fathers bereft Of wives children and
homes: there viii be mothers, fathers,
brothers and sisters mourning the alb
sent ones who have been reported
missing never to see or hear of their
loved ones again-eilher blown 90 atoms
or burned 90 a shapeless mass and
mingled with the ashes of their homes.
so words can describe the desOlatiOn
that strikes the eye when one glances
over the devastated era. Buildings had
been crushed like "a child's playhouse in
giants hand; trees had been uprooted
and wiihered as If by the icy hand Of
demon: iron and steel rails were
twisted like Bamboo over the ground
could be seen large pieces of plate from
the Mont Blanc. which had been blown
up In the air for two miles, TO come
down where they listed, on building or
land crushing everything In their path.
Some OF the pieces were carried -FOUR
miles through the air.
"The terrible nature Of the explosives
was shown by the havoc wrought on
both sides OF our harbor, all done in
minute of time.
Now Halifax is trying TO readIust
Itself 60 new conditions The people
were shell-shocked 0nd dazed for days,
but normal conditions are returning.
"a new Halifax is about being Duilt
up. Temporary shelters are being rush
ed 90 provide for The homeless people;
the relief funds are being used to pro
vide food and clothing for the people
who are I'm need Contributions have
been coming in from OH parts but it
will be a long time before The sufferers
win be put back in new homes.
"The printers of HaliioX were very
fortunate. No member of No. 100 was
injured; many lost relatives and dear
friends: some were burned out OF
house and home, yet they are thankful
they escaped unhuri.
