While no loss of lilt occurred at Pacolet,' nearly a;* many will be out of employment and at least there will be great suftering there also. Such a catastrophe, coming with such suddenness and without warning, places these people totally without means and without shelter. . Local aid is Hot sufficient to oveicome the great devastation and uffering and great hardships. Even death may result unless oromot aid is extended. Iirepre m * eentative citizens being at these places and who are familiar with the circumstances have informed Ii me that assistance is urgent and requested me to call upon the people of the State to come to the rescue, in order that further and more serious suffering may be prevented. I feel that it is only necessary to let the hue condition be known in order that the generous hearts of the people of the State may be touched to a quick reejK)nse. The' people have never'failed in accordance with our ability; however small it may be, but above all let it be prompt. . "D.
