for few minutes it appeared as though the
town was about to be visited by a cyclone.
The sky was overshad owed when the sun
rose, but there Were occasional streaks of
sunshine. which made the black. rolling
cloud, which was approaching from the
northwest, look more black. 1t looked
like a snow cloud, but darker,
and the rain that came from il
was driven by the wind with such force
that it seemed as though il could not reach
the ground 1he storm only lasted for a
few moments. and IL did no damage beyond
tearing away a few dead limbs from the
trees and Infringing q sign or two. It was
evidently stray fragment torn from the
storm which was then raging in North
Carolina. and sent this way to cool the
atmosphere.
During the squall, which lasted about ten
minutes, the wind attained a maximum
velocity Of thirty-six miles an hour from
the west.
