Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Modern Herculaneum: Story of the New Richmond Tornado This account of the grievous whirlwind which swept over the little city of New Richmond and adjacent country, June 12, 1899, is given as a record of the event in its many phases of detail, because of the importance of the results to individuals affected by it, and in the hope that some benefit may result from its suggestions. The sudden and unprecedented loss of life and property, in proportion to the area swept over and size of population, makes the occasion momentous to our people, and marks a sad turning point in their lives. It is to them a milestone set up unexpectedly in the midst of life´s journey, which says: "Behind you is the memory of the breaking up of family circles, and the swallowing up of earthly possessions; before you a renewed struggle for existence and livelihood, always a problem in the natural sequence of life, and now doubly complicated by circumstances and environment for which neither the history nor traditions of this locality can furnish instructive precedent."
