Cases involving injuries to cruise ship passengers may include injuries, deaths, missing passengers who apparently fell in the ocean, passengers being hit by falling objects, food poisoning, being thrown by rough seas due to the neglect of the captain and nearly every other conceivable type of injury possible on land can exist on cruise ships. Injuries also occur when passengers leave the ship to visit ports of call. Cruise ships arrange and promote tours, trips, scuba, fishing and other activities and sometimes they do not check out or monitor the safety of these companies that provide the services the cruise ship sells to the passengers.
Poolville is an unincorporated town in Parker County, Texas, United States founded by Sam Jones in 1814 along Farm Road 920, about 17 miles northwest of Weatherford, the county seat. It is home to a few hundred residents, and a school district with three campuses, a seed and feed company, a post office, a convenience store, and a storage facility. There are three churches in the town; a Methodist church, a Southern Baptist church, and a Church of Christ. The Church of Christ building is located just west of the town square, behind the seed company. Fires came through this small town because of a drought. The drought lasted for 8 months.
