1900 Galveston orphanage

This was the Catholic orphanage in Galveston right before the 1900 hurricane. When the storm hit, the nuns tied themselves to the children to keep them together. Sadly all but 3 children died. Tomorrow is the 125th anniversary of the storm. Also no negative comments on this

They made a human chain of 8,000+ people in Galveston this weekend to represent the number of lives lost in the storm, a number that is still unknown. It set a record for the world's longest human chain.
