The area still smelled of Molasses Track

HEXOMINO

This is about the great molasses flood
occurred in the north-end neighbourhood
of Boston.
On January 15, 1919
a large storage tank filled with tons of molasses
burst
and the resultant wave rushed through the streets
killing 21 and injuring 150.
The event entered the local folklore
and residents claimed for decades
afterwards
that the area still smelled
of molasses
on hot summer days.
