The lady in the center of the photo was trapped on the second floor of the home across from the firehouse for several hours before being rescued.  Firemen used an Arcola-Pleasant Valley VFD engine and a ladder laid from the hosebed to a second floor window.  The engine was tied off to a fully-loaded gasoline tanker to keep the engine from washing down river.  Earlier rescue attempts by the Middleburg VFD were abandoned when their boat was swept down river and destroyed in the area of Tail Race Rd. The gentleman walking in the left of the photo is Aldie Fireman Ben Gulick.  Photo by the Rev. S. Neale MorganDisplaced Resident, Tropical Storm Agnes
