What Happened to Marsh Rice?

Jones's brother back in texas had also started buying chloro form and sending it to the men in new york back in july. Jones later testified that in about august of 19 hundred, patrick started suggesting that they try to speed things along with rice. At first, rice seems to have thought these pills that jones was dosing him with were helping to improve his health. Then on september eighth, 19 hundred, a hurricane struck galveston, texas. This storm was catastrophic and deadly. It killed at least six thousand people, and possibly even twice that number. Rice still had business interests in houston and in galveston.
