September 21, 1938, will long be remem-
bered as the date of the Big Hurricane which
swept New England--in all history something never
before known to this part of the country.
The loss of lives was appalling; property damage
mounted to hundreds of millions of dollars and
the homeless counted to hundreds of thousands.
The tremendous fury of the wind left behind
destruction, destitution and utter ruin.
