The wind swept nine-year- old Frank into a straw rick. He was badly bruised and burned. Eight year old Lillie was killed instantly. Marion Lee and Phebe Harris were crushed and both died within a short time.The baby, Ernest, died a few weeks later, as a result of the incident. Two children, Frank and Lucy Ann, survived this tragedy.
