What a super-man that Doctor mast
be! A d the tales they to.:' Th.
horrible experience?. One r? r
woman swam (This at Moorehaver, "
where the worst damage and lai crest
death-toll) with her three little chi! dren
clinging to her back. When she
finally found a place where she
could stand, only one baby was left.
The other two had slipped > tT it- the
dark and the filthy water. Humans,
snakes, pigs. chickens and alligatorfound
refuge on the same housetop*
Elmo has made several trips to and
from Miami. Hollywo, d and Lauderdale.
One morning they cubed him
to bring in refugees from The Cloi? i
ter iMizners beautiful hotel at Boca |
Raton.) He came back looking like
he had seen a ghost. And yesterday
I went with hint to Hollywood. It
would be impossible to imagine the
havoc wrought. Great trees, hundreds
of them, twisted like strings
Houses caved in: half standing ami
the other halt who knows where:
hundreds of smashed cars: and yet.
one week since the storm and on
every- hand rebuilding is going on.
They are cleaning u. : bulging refuse ;
scattering chloride and oil in the disease-breeding
spots and Elmo saythat
it is hard to believe how much
better it looks since the first time he
went down.
At Moorehavcn. however, it is dif- j
ferent. The water is yet several
feet deep. I Lake Okeechobee everflowed
here.) The dead have been
left, probably close to n hundred, to
me ouzzartis. ix is saiu tnnt you can:
go closer than halt' a mile to the towr.
the stench is so terrible. Of course 1
the town has been evacuated (M
tary orders). On Tuesday night after
the storm E:T heard a crash on
the street and then children crying.
She sprang out of bed, into a kimona
and down the stairs to see if she
could help. A man. driving a delapidated
Ford had run into the Signal
plilor in the center of the street?
"He couldn't help it" his wife said.
"We have spent the last 4S hours in
the top of a tree with these children.
He hasn't had any sleep and he just !
couldn't keep awake any longer and
ran into it." And one of the tired,
dirty little boys had his pet hen in t
'
his arms?he had inaniviJ ti caw
for it through all thoso awful hours
