Read the passage from “Comprehending the Calamity.” The hospital is a one-story, low stone structure, with tiled roof. Its stone facing had nearly all fallen away, the chimney was gone, and the tiles were twisted and broken, All the timbering that supported the roof was exposed to view; the stone arch over the entrance was crumbled and just ready to fall.

The matron had just been removed unconscious from a heap of brick, mortar and general debris. The attendants were making frantic efforts to get the ambulance out. Tumbled piles of stones were in front of the doors, and one door was so wedged that it could not be moved.

But the ambulance was found to be narrower than the remaining door, willing hands were lifting and turning the great stones out of the way, and finally the frightened horses hauled it out over an amount of debris that in ordinary times would have been considered insurmountable.
