Hi Liz!

In an off-list message, Mari Lewis sent me some verses of a song about the
event:

One day in January 1947
The little town of Salem was a peaceful haven
The people they were happy
Just at the close of day
when all of a sudden
A cyclone came their way

Some people were working
And some had gone to town
When out of a blacken sky
A mighty storm came down
So many lost their homes
And everything they had
Some of them were injured
And felt so sad

But no one lost their life
There in that raging storm
God was surely very near
To call no one home
But the sun came up next morn
And shined the whole day long
but the wind was cold and icy
as it blew thru the throng

there are 7 verses to this song..

Mari Lewis
