There were 60 eager children assembled in Sunday SehOol . with a goodly gathering of adults when the storm - here along started.- We were enjoying a wonderful teslimoniaLalthough 'therairt and wind rapidly increased in intensity. After dismissal, the members remained in the little meeting hall for thl storm to subside. They sang hymns and told stories. Abdut I p.m., it became evident that thiS was no ordinary . storm.., The older men and women began to lasten and bar- ricade the windows. The wind shook the whole building and trees crashed all around the place. Heavy tile was torn from the roof and thunderous gushes threatened to push In the walls at any moment. Then In one explosive crash, most of the windows facing the blast were burled splintering into our midst The deadly shower surged against the walls like a tidal wave. It was a miracle no one was hurt. - We later learned that the velocity ''. of the wind at that time was 120 mph. end room we took the straw mats from , BACK in a smaller .the floor- - to nail agains,t the windows and in the 418M1,kk darkness leaned against the quivering. walls to lend them what support we could. One of the Japanese brothers led thiliightened group in prayer. The prayer was almost im- mediately answered as the wind died down gradually and the -- rain eased off to reveal an almost treeless neighborhood of gaping windows and roofless houses. After more than six hours of the typhoon. It was a prob- kin to get these good people to their homes. if any.- - Tek- phone poles were down and streets were blockaded with debris. After some took temporary refuge In the home of Mrs. Don R. Hickman, Salt Lake City, this sister agreed to take as many of these people home as her car would hold. Those next few hours were almost as exciting as the typhoon. It was barely possible to squeeze through the streets and our rapidly decreasing gasoline suppry brought additional concern. The streets were slimy with mud and rubbish, parts of trees and houses. We finally got our passengers as near their homes as the car would go and then Elder Cherril Cooper and I ate a sandwich, by candlelight, the first food that day, and then wearily turned in for a . good sleep. It was three days before we could contact all of the sisters and the elders who were in the storm. It was geood to learn that they were all right. Two sister had waded through water and mud knee deep and climbed over a wall to reach their homes. Two elders found the front and back walls of their second story room gone and their clothing scat-tered over roof tops and rice fields. TWO of our members suffered the entire destruction of their homes. Eighteen members found their homes at least half destroyed and 28 were flooded out. It is hard for an Amertean to realize what such a loss means to these poor people. Nevertheless, as little as they have, they were all able to Sillile and say, "We arc thankful none of our families were killed." Last week some of the women traveled in emergency boats and walked many miles In order to attend Relief Society meeting, carrying bundles and things they thought could by families in need.
