In the lesson "The Day the Dam Broke," James Thurber provides a humorous account of human follies. A rumor about the impending collapse of an Ohio River dam set off the hysteria. When someone fled eastward on Broad Street, the hysteria may have been worse. It's possible that the man was just remembering a date with his wife to meet at Maramor restaurant. Another person, possibly a newsboy in good spirits, starts to run. Soon after, another dapper man began to trot as well. Then, a loud murmur gradually crystallized into the terrifying word "Dam," which means "the dam has cracked!" 2000 people were running in full force down the high street within ten minutes, shouting, "GO EAST!" The dam has broken, "GO EAST!"
