The August Gale

Song. The events of the gale of August (25 1927.) Over forty men died at sea that day. Their wives and children weep, and homes that were once happy are now grief-stricken. The song ends with a plea for prayers for those who died, and at request to trust in Providence. Lehr, 1985, 9; also 78-236
