this tune the water was deep enough that they tied the cow and donkey to the boat and the animals swam along They heard sereams for help went and found a Negro woman and several children put them in the boat and took them to ottr house where the husband found them They left that was the last we heard of them we never knew if they made it By this time it was about 5 pm We were standing on our front porch and saw a two-story house come floating down the street So my Dad decided we better leave By this time the water was six inches from coming in our house We had a Jersey cow also so they led the two cows and the donkey up on our front porch and then we all got into the boat Mother Mrs Hansen Miss Nanie Robbie Mrs Cline Cino Cline and the men were in and out of the boat to help guide it as we were at the mercy of the wind and waves We left 10th and Market at fi pm and at 1 a in we had gone only six blocks We 1vere dashed here and there At 15th and Market we got upon a pile of rubbish and made a drop of about a or tO feet We then went on to 201h where we drifted in under a shed By this time the men were exhausted and thought this would be a fine place to stay They heard a creaking sound so decided to move On We had only gotten a few feet away when the entire shed went down We then went one block south and were washed by wind and current around the corner and headed west on 20th by the Post Office went a half block and were washed into the alcove entrance to the opera house We were well sheltered from wind and rain and thought this was a haven where we could St

and her maid transplanted violets all morning It started to sprinkle rain and mother said "Oh that will be fine for the new planted violets" This was about II am My dad came home for lunch and by this time it had stopped raining We lived the third house from the corner on Market and 10th When my daddy went back to work he always rode me on the handlebars of his bike to the corner When I got off and he started across the street the water was about six inches deep It had not rained very hard so my Dad leaned down and put his finger in the water it was salty But still he went on back to work When he got to 2Ist and Market he could go no farther so he turned and rode back home By the time he got back home the water was up in our front yard We lived in a five room house that was about four feet up from the ground Next door to us on the west was Dr Roivel Haney Cline his wife and 5- year-old daughter Their house was real low I find the water by this time was almost in their house So Dad helped them get a few things together and they came to our house By this time my Dad decided he had better see about an old friend Capt who lived on 10th and Avenue A By the time Dad got to their house he was in water over knee deep So he and Mr Hansen waded about a block down to the bayside got a sail boat and came to our house which was four blocks After depositing the family at 3 R's WITH

caused by such I hings as students making hid minute mind-changes on their schedules -The computer is definitely a fine thing- Truelson said "Admittedly Ikere kind of atraid ot it kVe haven't used it long enough It's Just a question of us getting familiar its use We went one half black WPM then drifted north one block to 2Ist and Market Our boat was washed into an entrance of offices upstairs At this point we all got out of the boat went up stairs to an off-flee sat in chairs with blankets around us as the windows were all out The men took watches Watching the water level at 3 am my Dad came running up stairs The wind had shifted from south and east to north which washed the tide out By 5 am the water was gone The three men walked the 11 blocks to our homes The Hansen place was completely gone Not one thing of theirs was ever found Dr Cline's house had washed off its foundation Our house was OK but the water had gotten over the key board on our piano about 8 inches of mud was in the house The men then went back got the rest of the party and they all came to our house In the time the men walked the 11 blocks got us and got back to the house it had been robbed Immediately Dad reported to city and they started a clean up job At that time my grandfather Dr Salter Blunt was state health officer He gave permission for my mother's mother and husband to come and take my mother and me out and back to El Paso where my sister was born 21 das later What happened alter that was hearsay We were in an open boat from 5 in till about 1 am with absolutely no protection from wind and flying objects Not one person in the boat even had a scratch 'rhe boat was examined and it was literally peppered with fragments of tin and clay roofing When we got home our cow was in our yard The Hansen cow had gone about a block down the street and up on a porch The people just let her stay The donkey came home several days later We never knew where he went or how he got home Dad worked on the clean-up crew They took the bodies loaded them on drags took them to the docks put them on barges and took them out to sea In a few days the bodies drifted hack on the beach Then they took lumber from wreckage put it in a pile put bodies on top then lumber then bodies until they had huge piles and then they burned them My father being a very honest man turned into the City jewelry of every kind that had come from bodies with no identification of any kind He turned in a pint measure of diamond rings earrings cash silver i by the barrels I He did not keep one coin even as a keepsake nor one piece of jewelry But believe Inc plenty of people really cleaned up on the articles they took from the dead But now that I know right from wrong I am really proud to have had such an honest father stayed in El Paso for six weeks By the time we returned things were getting back to normal I have written this at the request of my on Fre Barsey As I write this Lute article I am 74 years old The
