Storm Ravages Martin's Beach, Kingsport

Sunday, March 8, 1925

The spring storm of March 8 and 9 is feared to have led to the disappearance of M/S Mary P. Benjamin, a fishing vessel from Kingsport, as well as her crew of four. The captain, Jerome K. Philbin, decided to ignore warnings against leaving port during the storm, and it is assumed that the sea swallowed both the vessel and her crew. Elsewhere, several buildings in Kingsport were damaged, while Martin's Beach saw significant damage to the main pier, which also was covered by pieces of foul-smelling fish. Mr. Vernon Morrison and Ms. Johanna Glover of Martin's Beach were swept out to sea, but rescued despite the terrific storm by Mr. Jules Pollack and Ms. Moira Baker of Arkham in an astounding feat of swimming and compassion.

The remains of young Gregory Goyle were buried this morning in Christchurch Cemetary. His parents.

Mrs. Goyle ended the ceremony with a deeply sorrowful eulogy, stating that Gregory was " a true model for young men everywhere, and one with a bright future, one that is now extinguished". Gregory Goyle is mourned by his family and friends, and especially his older brother Stafford, and his older sister,  Carmilla.
