£ AUGUSTA HERALD
hnd the flood of 1848 came in Sep
tember.
While the river has reached 34 to j
I'.j feet on several occasslons during
the period It seems as If but little
damage was done except at the
times mentioned and It seems as the!
10,-h was comparatively binall in j
1868.
The water reached its record hreak- j
Ing point this time and went two in
ches above the high point of twenty
years ago The rapid rise of the river
this time caused greater damage In j
the way of washouts as the onrush of
the water was so rapid as to tear up
streets and do other damage of simi
lar nature throughout the entire town.

$3,200 READY NOW
This Stint Placed in Hands

tions and itelief Commit
tee—Divided Into Three
Sums.
At u joint meeting of the rltizens
committee and the council committee,
held at the offices of the Chamber of
Commerce this afternoon at 1 o'clock
plans were formulated for handling
the relief work over the city.
Many communications offering as
sistance were reud and thanks ren
dered In each Instance to the donors.
After some discussion It waa decided
to keep the entire committee at work
during the entire period needed and
the two committees will meet each
morning at 11 o'clock, until the work
Is over.
For relieving Immediate suffering
$3,200 was placed In the hands of re
lief workers. This was divided Into
three sums, $2,200 being given over
to thu Associated Charities. There
are twenty-two different organizations
composing the body and their work
is divided Into as many districts.
They will Handle those ordinarily
coming under their care. To the Sal
vation Army SSOO was given, together
with power to use It as the officials
of the organization see fit. The Sal
vatlon Army has been hard at work
during the whole flood and much good
ha* been accomplished.
A colored relief committee was ap
pointed and SSOO given to them for
Immediate use. Composing the com
mittee is Rev. C T. Walker, Silas X
Floyd. A C. Voting. P. H. Craig, and
I>r O. N. Stoney. They have already
located all the suffering negroes in
the flood-stricken district and will
provide for the Immediate wants of
the sufferers.
At the committee meeting tomor
row provisions will be made to meet
any situation that may prevail at that
time and another appropriation made
If needed.
MARY LOSSES ARE
OVER ESTIMATED
From many point* there are coming
in authentic reports to show that the
damage has been ovcrestlmatd as far
as Individual and tirm losses arc con
cerned Ho overwrought were the
tears ot everyone that the disaster in
specific Instances appeared greater
than it was In reality, and often time*
tabs frequently repeated grew !n

A specific instance is that of the
Industrial Lumber Company, it has
been published that their plant has
unvalued total lives So far is th!»
cxugegrated that It is stated by mana
ger Pbllpot that their damages will
not exceed $1,505. and their loss Is

VERYSMALLDAMAGE
DONE AT UNION
DEPOT
Mr. Thos. K. Scott, general man
ager of the Georgia railroad, said this
morning that the damage sustained
by flood at the Union depot was too
insignificant to estimate.
' There was of rourse," he said, "a
little damage from mud in the waiting
rooms, but w e opend them all up this
morning and the furniture that was
ruined will be Immediately replaced.
The flooring tinder the train shed was
simply lifted on top of the waters,
but held to Us moorings and settled
back down after the flood subsided.
We have a large force of hauds at
work and expect to ha. the depot
opeu again in a day or so.”
There were no wash-outs any where
on the line of the Georgia, said Mr.
Scott, and the local damage, altogeth
er, was remarkably light.
