Great Hail Storm,

One of the most severe electrical
storms ever witnessed in these parts
occurred last Sunday afternoon he
tween the hours of four and FIVE
o'clock. The storm in this village,
however, was like an April shower in
comparison with what happened on
the Laporte and Randolph roads in
the shape OF wind and hail storm.
At G. f. Smiths farm his boat house
was completely destroyed and dis
trtbuted in pieces around the pond.
Hail stones covered the yard and
were from three to four inches deep,
some of which measured one inch in
diameter. Behind the barn was
bank between two and One-half and
three feet deep. A number of panes
of glass were broken in the buildings.
The building on the farm of William
Welch suffered even more than those
of Mr.. Smith from broken glass. At
the home of Mrs. Allen on Randolph
road three windows were broken by
hail stones rs large as robins eggs.

the season on some parts of his route.
