Last Friday evening Hubbard's
Cove was visited by the most destruc-
tive cyclone that ever passed through
there. The first damage done in
Hubbard's Cove was to Byrd Lusk's
buildings, which were unroOfed. 1t
passed through his orchard and blew
some of his trees a quarter of mile.
The next house blown down was Mr..
Jimmie Winton's, which was blown
to the ground, killing Mr.. l.. H. j.
England and almost killed Mrs. Win
ton. Any one to see the rubbish
would think it impossible for anyone
to have escaped, but there were 10
persons in the house and several never
received even a scratch. The wind
then crossed into Fults' Cove and
tore 7. b. Fults' house to atoms. Mr..
Fults and family escaped by going
into the cellar. The cellar was so
full of potatoes that all could not hide
themselves entirely, and consequently
got pretty badly bruised. All his
household furniture was destroyed.
The next house was the widow Ma
than Fults', which was unrOofed and
the chilnneys, porches and everything
except the wall blown away. Avery
large barn was also demolished. Mr..
Samuel Bishops smoke house was
the last building destroyed, the main
current missing his dwelling. A
great deal of timber was destroyed.
