Baptists, and for three hours the
scenes around the church were in
describable. Dead bodies weac
strewn in every direction and the
ambulance service of the city was
utterly unable to remove them un
til after 1 o'clock. Doens of dead
bodies were arranged in rows on
the ground outside of the Iioumo of
worship awaiting removal to the
various undertaking establish
