Cannon's factory. tearing OF a portion of
the roof and turning ABOUT some OF the
tenant-houses. In few minutes II levelled
fences and houses, including two barns; ;
scattered lumber, several chlmneys, and
unroofed the dwelling of NJ. VI. Gillon,
leaving the upper story complete wreck.
a HAPPY ESCAPE.
Mrs. Gillon made a happy escape fy
being awakened from an afternoon nap N

came up. 4 little son of Tom Stricker,
vii le irving to get n cow into shelter, WIS
caught in the falling timbers OF the barn,
but escaped without being injured. \

residence was almost completely demol-
ished The cOlOred occupants were enlOy-
ing the genial warmth Of a big fire when
the chimney suddenly collapsed, and the
wind left pickles, preserves. and crOckery
promiscuously scattered among the dcIr.s
of the building. The storm of mingled had

country, damaging farmers and many
