Then the' sides started falling and the water rushing in, in torrents and my brother and the man who owned the house were holding a mattress against a window trying to keep out so me of the storm when a piece of roofing crashed through the window and cut the neighbor's arm and George's forehead. "\V e stayed there until it subsided and then the question was food and water and· a dry bed, so we ·walked a half a mile through two feet of \\·ater to another neighbor's whom my brother happened to know and they let us stay for the night. The next clay it was a case of finding what was left of our belongings. All our clothes were ruined, so that we can't wear them again. All our furniture was cracked and buckled and the oak Aom-s had the appearance of a washboard. The American Legion brought us food for three days and since then we have been getting it different places. Honestly, you don't know how it makes George feel to have to accept charity. And he could just cry when he thinks how generous our friends were in -contributing to u.. Our only hope is that we can do something some day to make up for it. " ).lr. and Mrs. Hugo T.
