Notes
Content: Printed on border: "About half past eight o'clock this morning a wall of St. Xavier Church, on Sycamore Street, between Sixth and Seventh Streets, now being demolished, suddenly fell, crushing beneath its weight a large number of the laborers, and killing many outright. The disaster occurred on the west side of Sycamore, north of Sixth. The St. Xavier Church was the oldest Roman Catholic Church in the city."
