THE MINNESOTA TORNADO.
Men, Women, and Children Carried Away
by the Wind,

[Sauk Centre or. 81. Cloud Journal
About twelve miles southwest from here, in
the town Of Raymond, in Stearns county, was
81 ectable farmer, Mr.. Richard richardson, for
merly Of Rice county, in this State. At the
time of the commencement of the storm, on
Friday night, he and his family were quietly
enjoying their home, with others OF the neigh
oorhood, who were stopping over night with
them. About l2 O'Clock Mr.. Richardson re-
marked to his wife that he feared they would
nave hard storm. Before he could arouse the
family, or even make any preparations himself,
the tornado burst upon them with such force
as 70 tear TO pieces and scatter about for dis
lance CT quarter Of mile the entire house
and its contents, together with the inmates
There were at the time twelve persons in the
building. the most Of them up stairs asleep.
& IL vas block or log house 16xsa, one and q
ners and pinned with two-inch oak pins. Mr..
and Mrs. Richardson and the small child alone
remained In the ruins Of the house John, the
rods and dropped on the ground, so badly
bruised and mangled that there Is but little
nope OF his recovery. George, the second son,
l3 years old, was also carried thirty rods and
had his right ankle broken, the bone protrud.
ing through the flesh. He Is also badly bruised
In many places. The third son, years of age,
was borne some thirty rods, and hurled TO the
ground so badly injured that he only lived a
few moments. Two other children, little girls,
Were taken from their beds. twisted up in their
o.d clothes, and dropped on the opposite side
H. received some injuries on and about the
head and face. but nothing more serious. This
is about The extent of the injuries received by
the family of Mr.. X. Miss Anna Wilson, a
school teacher, stopping at the house of MIR.
H., having some fears at the time, had
arisen and dressed, and was sitting up
when the wind struck the building.
She was carried with the rest, mixed IN with
broken pieces Of timber, boxes, barrels, cup
boards, trunks, bedding aud furniture, and the
entire contents of the upper part of the house,
thirty seven rods, and deposited in the wheat
field. She was so badly bruised that there is
little hope Of her recovery. Liberty Raymond,
twenty two years old, eldest son of l.. B. Raw.
mond, from whom the town of Raymond takes
its name, was among the unfortunate. He was
carried about the same distance as Mr.. RS
Oldest son, and so badly maDgled that he only
survived a short time. The scene at the house
when the daylight came, is much easier
imagined than described. Mr.. r. being the
only one left after the disaster to collect in the
dead and dying, and to care for the injured
ones. After looking for and finding the most
OF them in the midnight gloom, It beng very
dark and stormy, he proceeded to the neighbors
to give the alarm and procure assistance. All
OF the medical aid was soon on the road TO the
scene OF disaster.

Especial Correspondence Of The Star
CAMP GROUND, TUESDAY, Aug 10, 1867
The preaching last night was by Rev. L. c.
Miller, from st. John, 9th chapter, 27th verse
his sermon being clel N, concise exposition of
the duty Of giving eternal things precsde nee Of
these exclusively earthly. An exaortation
from Rev. ]. W. Boteler followed, an several
presented themselves at the altar as penitents
one or two Of whom professed to obtain peace
in believing. To-day has been quite an inter-
esting one, commencing with profitable pub.
lie prayer meeting atsH o'clock. At IL O'Clock
Rev. DIR. Huston preached from ST. Matthew,
5th chapter, 18th TO 10th verse-a simple, plain,
eloquent exposition Of the Christians relations
TO his fellow man touching salvation. Tue
sacramental service following will not soon
be forgotten by those participating, or by the
congregation assembled. At 3 o'clock Rev b.
+. Ball preached an interesting sermon based
on st. John, 5th chapter, 9th verse, followed
by an exhortation and the usual altar exer-
cises. Rev. Dr. T. B. Sargent is expected TO
preach Tomorrow. The congregations are
larger to-day than Yesterday. Rev. W. w.
Reese, Of the Methodist Protestant Church. and
Rev. Messrs. Brown and Bird, of the M L
Church, were on the preachers stand 1t is
probable that the meeting Will close on FRIDAY
