WEDNESDAYS GREAT STORM.
The storm of Wednesday night Of
last week was the most severe and
damaging while it lasted of any ex-
perienced here in years. The fruit
trees, especially apple, heavily laden,
were thoroughly shook from their
roots and in a few instances blown
over. In all orchards the ground was
most plentifully strewn with early
ripe fruit, and where COWS could reach,
too freely devoured. Several instances
of drunken diaries were reported. On
two or more farms tobacco had been
left to further ripen. but was almost
completely destroyed. Considerable
corn was blown over and the damage
to highways by the heavy rainfall will
necessitate much extra work, this
month, by the road repairers. The
damage to boats on Lake Waramaug
has been estimated at $500. 1t was a
night of storm, long to be remembered
by those who were kept awake in more
or less fear for the consequences, but
all were sincerely thankful that in
this vicinity the disastrous results are
no greater.
