In these news articles, Bill Eluchok brings the quarry workers’ flood experiences to the forefront of the natural disaster. He offers first-hand accounts of the tragic losses that defined the flood from the perspectives of Henry Moggach (then 31 years old ) and George Mayberry (then 24 years old). The articles include portraits of the men recounting the incidents.
