SNAKE CREEK HORROR
~ TALE IS REVEALED
(Continued From Page One)
rising, we made our way to the
railroad track. Placing ourselves
behind the grade, we dug holeg into
the earth under the cross ties, so
we would protect our heads from
the flying debris. This was the
only way we could find to keep
our brains from being crushed
out. We stayed on the track un
til 3 a. m.,, as that was the only
point above water.
“At daybreak Tuesday we found
a tank car full of water which of~
sered refuge from the wind and a
number of others built a fire and
made coffee for the sick and injur
ed. There we remained until later
in the afternoon, when we were res
cued through the heroism of Buck
Wright and several' others who
took us across Snake Creek in a
rowboat, one at a time. We then
were placed on trucks and brought
to the mainland. v
“One of those killed in the col
lapse of the Snake Creek hotel was
Dr. E. C. Main, medical director
of the camp, who lost his life be
fore my eyes.”
Joseph Factsau, ex-army aviator,
time keeper at camp 5, at a local
hospital with spine injuries, saw
his wife, two daughters and two
grand children killed, after reaching '
camp 1, secking safety. He said|
he doubted if anyone at camp b
could have survived, because of thel
lack of shelter. !
“Upon hearing the storm warn
ing,” Factsau said, “I started out
’ln an automobile from my home
half way between camp 5 and 3
| with my wife, Frieda, and my two |
daughters, Marie Madsen, 18, and |
Dorothy Vester, 16. We were ac- |
companied by my two grand child-!
iren, Ray Madsden, age two and a|
lhalr, and Dorothy Vester, age onel
‘year. - l
“After traveling through increas- '
ing winds and over wreckage‘
strewn roads for 18 miles on a flat!:
tire, we reached Camp No. 1 and
were placed in a building with a‘
lot of drunks who kept up a con- 1

“The building we were placed in|
at camp 1 lasted only an hour |
I tried to make a human chain from |
{the building to the railroad track to,
get all the women and children to
safety, but I was washed out into}
the gulf by a high wave. I swam[

rea¢hed shore just as the hospital
collapsed. I heard my wife camng{
