Effects of the South Carolina Tornado. Sixty.
two Houses DESTROYED by the Storm

Charleston, April ia tornado swept
over the up country on Thursday night.
The new market house at Columbia, which
was about finished, was blown down; but
the worst damage was done in Chester, at
which place sixty-two houses were de-
stroyed by the storm, and many others
seriously damaged. Nobody was killed,
but four colored persons were injured by
falling houses. Miles of fencing were
blown down, and thousands of large fruit
trees torn up by the roots.
The total loss in Chester is estimated at
$4,000, mostly falling on persons of small
means. A meeting was held in Chester
to-day and steps taken for the relief Of ths
sufferers. The tornado moved westwardly
and was of short duration. -.
