Troy, ". ", Aug. -. The work Of til,
storm in this region was far more destrnc
tive than first reported. On every side arr
evidences Of ruin and destruction. The
streams are still raging torrents and lit
tered with great beams. planks and per
sonal effects from residences, stores anc
factories swept by the food Carcasses O.
horses, cattle and hogs are no rare sight.
The storm, too swept over a much widel
area than az first supposed, and it was moi
unaccompanied by loss OF human life, az
it was hoped was the case.
The loss Of life has been IN the Poesten
kill. A remarkable coincidence is that or

ed ia just the same way. No damage
OF any consequence appears to have beer
done east of Glass House lake. 1t was
here that the storm burst ia all its fury
or the thirty bridges along the Wynants
kill only two remain.
There was intense excitement in Peters
burg. That portion OF the village knowL
as mill yard was submerged and thirty
one persons, mostly wemen and children
were removed from second story windows
by means Of ropes The loss in this locality
alone is placed At about 5000
swept Into the water.
At Poestenkill village a number Of per
sons gathered on bridge to watch thu
surging waters. The structure was sup
posed TO be safe. Soon an ominous creak
ing was heard William McChesney, VIII
liam Castle, Mrs Garret Ives and Robert
Morrison were carried with the bridge inta
the torrent. Mrs. Ives and Morrison were
speedily rescued. McChesney was drownec
and Castle was found alive, but uncon
scious, several hours later in the top Of
