I BIG HAIL STORM IN NORTH GEORGIA
The Rattle of the Stones Was Heard Fit
teen Miles.

a special from Snellville, Ga, says
A hail storm of gigantic proportions
swept Snellville and this section OF
Gwinnett county Wednesday afternoon
The storm in its intensity, the size OF
the hail stones and the rate OF the
wind has never been equaled before
in this county. The damage resulting
will reach far into the thousands.
The hail stones were from two inch
es in diameter TO the size of walnut.
The hail began falling at l O'Clock and
the storm continued for an hour, but
the terrific fall of hail lasted only
about fifteen minutes.
When the storm was over the
ground was covered to depth of l. to
ii inches on the level, while in the
valleys the fall measured two to three
feet deep.
Following the hail came a drenc h.
ing rain and the stones were washed
iuto drifts, these drifts measuring in
many places as high as 10 feet.
The loss cannot be estimated, Farms
have been actually dug up, and the
the crops are devastated.
} The trees have the appearance o.
winter, as all the foliage is gone
