S. 6 Episode 2- St. Mary's Orphanage and the Ghosts That Remain

from Case Files with Kat and Ashley

On the 8th of September of 1900, a hurricane gutted St. Mary's Orphan Asylum of Galveston, Texas. The hurricane's catastrophic impact ultimately claimed 6,000 lives, engulfing the city as well as its inhabitants. By the beachside, ten nuns held tight to ninety-three children, their wrists roped with clotheslines. They had fastened the clothesline to themselves, fettering the children to their waists in a futile attempt to save their lives. Only three survived, though the Liberty Vindicator reported that they were "bruised and scarred and crippled." It was the deadliest natural disaster in the history of the United States. Resources:1.      https://ghostcitytours.com/galveston/haunted-galveston/st-marys-orphanage/2.      https://www.jmplumbley.com/2017/07/09/courtesy-flush-the-haunting-of-the-hotel-galvez/3.      http://www.galvestonghost.com/stmarys.html4.      http://edition.cnn.com/2000/WEATHER/09/08/galveston.remembrance.01/5.      https://sistersofcharity.org/2020/09/02/remembering-1900/ Please like, follow, and share this podcast - we're on all of the platforms!
