Throughout the track great trees have been "wrench¬ ed olf like pipestcms, ponderous rocks hurled hundreds of yards, all vegeta- lion burned and blackcnctj, fenpes and houses scattered everywhere, dead cattle aud other stock scattoved iu profusion in horribly mangled mass¬ es." The account of the slate of the unhappy persons who were killed is more striking. All the bodies were covered with thick, bluish, sulphu¬ rous mud. The clothing was stripped off and torn to shreds.
