That was a pretty stiff breeze that
came up from the south Monday
night. Down at the marble quarry
it moved the main building about
three feet and utterly wrecked the

move the shop airy way 50 the work
of the wind was not aniiss. At Rob-
ert Cooks probably so worth of dam
age was done, the barn being moved
nearly off its foundations and all the
other outbuildings tipped over. In
town a great many limbs of trees torn
