I'm happy after being accepted for work experience at the Gay Times! Yay.

The famous Eye Witness at the Triangle news report. 1911 New York

Eyewitness at the Triangle

by William G. Shepherd

I was walking through Washington Square when a puff of smoke issuing from the factory building caught my eye. I reached the building before the alarm was turned in. I saw every feature of the tragedy visible from outside the building. I learned a new sound--a more horrible sound than description can picture. It was the thud of a speeding, living body on a stone sidewalk.

Thud—dead, thud—dead, thud—dead, thud—dead. Sixty-two thud—deads.
