History repeats itself!

1912 reports on Tacloban storm 'killing' 15,000 resurface



An old front page of the defunct Washington Herald resurfaced online running a story headlined "15,000 die in Philippine storm" and citing flattened out cities.

"The typhoon swept the Visayas and is said to have practically destroyed Tacloban, the capital city of Leyte, and to have wrought enormous damage and loss of life at Capiz," the news story reads, citing a cable dispatch to the United States Bureau of Insular Affairs.

The extreme weather event in November 26, 1912 seemed to have repeated itself 101 years after, when another severe typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan) slammed onto the region and heavily devastated Tacloban City and Capiz, among others, on November 8 this year.

"That 15,000 persons were probably killed and wounded in a typhoon ... probably half the population of the two cities had been lost," the report says, without making no distinction between the general casualties and fatalities.
