September 21, 1938, will long be remembered as the date of the Big Hurricane which swept New England--in all history something never before known to this part of the country. The loss of lives was appalling; property damage mounted to hundreds of millions of dollars and the homeless counted to hundreds of thousands. The tremendous fury of the wind left behind destruction, destitution and utter ruin.
