Houses, stock, trees, shrubberY,

waste and the whole territory
strewn with fragments of timber,
houses and domestic articles.
While the cyclone lasted the air
was filed with various objects, men
were picked up bodily and thrown
seventy-fve feet in the air and
landed a quarter of a mile away.
a farmer named Maynard, living

was driven against fence post

by a four-inch piece of timber,
death ensuing shortly after. His

a quarter of mile from the House,
and was found in a corn-feld devoid
of all clothing except stockings.

if the States Attorney presses
