The Hollidaysburg Register, noticing n for;

was visited on Friday week, saws:
.Ine quantity of window glass broken Is
almost mcredible-nearly every house in town
ma naving lost more or less, and many as high as
lehts! Alter the storm had passed, the
iata streets particularly, presented a truly
dePlorable aspect, and indeed the whole town
looked as If a beseiging army had pelted il
lndostrlously for a fortnight with grape and
MANY of the hail stones were as large as
the largest size..hulled walnuts. To the south
east OF the town 1t fell in such quantities as to
M " tne heids. In Hollidaysburg and to
the east of us the wind blew Violently and
much rain fell. In Gaysport we are told that
1t was accompanied with much less wind and
ram. In Frankstown the windows suffered
more severely than in Hollidaysburg."
