Pictures above show how last Wednesday’s tornado ripped uup the town of Tanglewood. The top picture o
shows the First Boptist Church. A couple of members look over the wreckage where furniture was stored
belonging to the Rev. James Hosea, the new minister who had come in the night before. Most of th fur- 9
niture was carried away by the storm, adding to the ccob.ems of the minister who is faced with building 1
a new church, before he can preach his first sermon, .he picture b low gives you an idea how the town %
hall looked a! r the tornado had blown over. The cig timbers were ripped from the structure and C
stacked along the path of the twister like kindling wood. — A number of resid nees were either de 3
molished or badly damaged. A number of persons were injured but fortunately no life was lost in the 9
trnado. " 1
