Show EARTHQUAKE AND HURRICANE. South Suffers Severe Damage, One Life Being Lost. Atlanta, Ga. The south was rocked by earthquake and swept by storm at the same time on Wednesday. While a tropical hurricane was flaying the gulf coast, earth tremors overturned chimneys and frightened many people from their homes in Georgia, Alabama Ala-bama and Tennessee. The earthquake did little damage, but a wind that reached a velocity of 114 miles an hour lifted roofs from houses at Pensacola, Fla., and sank vessels in the harbor. One life was lost. |
