- Alice Fletcher: I was only 17 and I came out here to marry the son of my father's business partner. All I knew about him was that his name was Henry and he was to meet me at the train station. He'd sent me a new dress yellow, so I'd stand out and told me to wear it the day I arrived so he'd know me. On the way back from the station, Henry wants to take a ride around the property, show off his land. "*Our* land," he said. After a while, the horse pulling the buggy starts getting antsy. I look up and see this strange cloud. Black with green around the edges. Henry says, "Looks like we got a bit of rain coming."Next thing I knew, the cloud was gone. Just vanished. Now the horse starts to rear in the traces. Henry helps me out of the wagon when I hear a rumble. I turn around and see a six-foot wall of water coming right at us. Henry, the horse, the buggy they all got washed away right in front of me. I almost did, too, but my new yellow dress got hung up on some mesquite. Saved my life. I wandered off for eight days in the wrong direction before I was found.
- Roy Goode: Found? By who?
