For the past week have been in Quest of

old vocal music heard Wednesday night
OF last week, as the members of the club

The Storms.

On Monday afternoon one of the seve-
rest hail storms known for years, passed
over New Milford and BrooKfeld, and
destoyed corn, tobacco, oats, hay, &c.
The hail laid piled up in heaps against
fences nearly as large as hens eggs.
Mr. Henry Booth lost pair of horses,
valued at $500. They were instantly
killed by lightning.
The trains were delayed by the wash
ing of the railroad.
On Tuesday another storm passed over
Newtown, but we learn of no damage
other than slight washing of the roads.
In Bridgeport the storm was very severe
Many trees were blown down, and other
property damaged.

far west He became an active citizen.
an eminent physician, and friend to
every one; so that after residence Of
more than thirty years in Portland, he is
now regarded as one TO whom the thirty.
ing village owes much of Its present
prosperity.
For the past few years bis health has
been much impaired by the lsbors of his
life, both as physician and citizen.
A few months previous to his death he
removed to Hersey, hoping to continue
his labors but he was soon attacked
with lung disease. from which he had al
ready been sufferer, and died after
lingering illness.
He was fond of study. and close OBJ.
