Here is page two of a four-page cover article entitled "Floods: Springtime Brings Deluge to Northeast; Thirteen Stricken States Shelter Their Homeless and Bury Their Dead." It was published originally in the 28 March 1936 issue of "News-Week" magazine, page 8. Partial Text: "At the flood's peak, those who ventured back into [Johnstown's] streets in boats took pains to look at the exterior of the First National Bank building. There they spied the familiar black line with the engraved words: 'High Water Mark, May, 31, 1889.' Just a foot and a half below, the dirty waters of March, 1936, lapped at the building's side." |
