Personal Testimony of Mrs. Wilson, Captain Hefflers daughter, taken December 20th.

She lived opposite her father on Needham St. She and her baby were pinned beneath a fallen roof. Another little girl of her's jumped from second story of St. Joseph's School. None were badly injured. Went to Fort Needham, where she had to "step over" the dead and wounded. All in a panic.
