“In the year 1839 there was a hurricane.”
In the year 1839 there was a hurricane. There was a terrible thunderstorm with great rainstorms and floods. All the crops were destroyed and the people were starving. The houses were flooded and several people lost their lives. The snow was falling thickly. Cattle, horses and sheep were lost, and buried under the snow.
Men were sent out to dig out the bodies of the people out of the snow. They piled up the snow in great heaps. All the animals were dug out of the snow, and others were perishing with the cold.
It was ten feet deep, any houses, birds, animals, or people could not be seen. About half the population died of the cold. Any person does not know the hardships the people went through during the year of 1839.Collected by,Betty Donovan,
