Last Monday shortly afternoon a ter- rific tornado struck Gainesville, caus- ing a fearful loss of life in that city, New Holland and White Sulphur, kill- ing over a 100 men, women and chil- dren and injuring over one hundred more, and the loss of property is esti- mated at least $600,000. Many of them being mangled beyond recognition, the only means of identification being the records of the two cotton mills in which most, of the victims worked. Its path was about three hundred yards wide.

Two clouds met and the tornado swooped down and in t\vo minuses kill ed all these people, tore, two stories from the five, brick .story.factory of the Gainesville Cotton Mills, demolished near two bundled cottages, raised two brick stores frort) the ground, turned over loaded freight trains and blew down innumerable buildings. On it went along Sujjimit street, which is.

inhabited almost exclusively by ne- groes... Nearly a hundred cottages on this street were leveled to the ground, but fortunately most all the tenants were absent, having loft the city in the morning to take a part in a negro pic- nic.

At New Holland, two miles from the Southern station, where the Pacolet prills are located, employing 600hands, the factory was spared but 100 cottages were entirely demolished, standing near by tenanted by its operators.

Here many persons were killed, bodies were blown hundreds of yards and many of them when picked up bore no resemblance of humanity. i

From New Holland the tornado swept cmward to the east to White Sulphur, a town of about erne hundred inhabitants, leaving death and destruc- tion in its path and then ascended and is heard of no more that we have learn- ed.

The city presented an inky darkness and at the flash of lighting could be seen whirling through tlie air timber, household furniture, cattle, bodies and most everything else that was in its path. People were blown about like pieces of paper and their screams could be heard above the terrible roar of the tornado. One lady with her child in her arms was blown half a mile. The next day they were found. The baby alive and. the mother dead. A boy’ s head was severed from his body.

Soon afterwards many physicians wefe up from Atlanta, helping to care for th c woifnded. And on Tuesday excursion trains ran into the city, car- rying ten thousand people from every direction.

Contributions are being sent in by many persons and cities to assist the

1000

homeless people in their distress- ed condition, parts of some of their houses being blown for miles. The amount of cash raised up to date is about $7,000. Much more is needed and you are arc appealed to for aid.

The following is the estimated loss of the persons and firms given b e lo w : Gainesville Cotton Mills, $50,000.

Pacolet Mill, $100,000. ' Gainesville Cotton Oil Company, $3,000. Gaines- ville Ironworks, $5,000. Southern rail- way, $1,000. T. T. Moore, $300. .T.
