“A worried mother and her child leave Louisville by bus when the city was evacuated. Evacuation centers were set up when a barge carrying liquid chlorine broke loose from its tug and threatened to spill its poisonous contents. The barge carried enough liquid chlorine to devastate much of the city of Louisville.”
