Williamsburg, Aug. 21-The storm
that came up so suddenly Tuesday ev-
ening did some damage. 1t tore corn
crib all to pieces and scattered the
corn in all directions, and blew down
a number of old and well rooted shade
trees. Miss Rowland and her mother
Mrs. John Hughes, while on their way
from their home to John Hughes, were
blown from the sidewalk. Mrs. Hughes
sustained slight injuries. AT the same
place William Jenkins and John
Hughes were blown off the walk. Jen-
kins was taken up in the air and land
ed about fifteen feet farther on his
journey. Mr.. Hughes sustained moth
ing more severe than the loss of his
Sunday hat, of which there could be no
trace seen. This diminutive cyclone
took southeastern course through
the south part of the town, and for
tunately there was but little in its path
on which to spend its fury.
