A Veritable Cloud Burst.

Not within the memory .of the
Oldest inhabitants of Edgefeld,
has heavier rain fallen in this
vicinity than that which fell dur
ing Wednesday night of last week.
The streets, roads and fields have
been washed into great gullies
where etheys.neyer swashe i'd. before.
The large bridge on Jeter street
acrossS Beaverd ans: was carried
down stream a. conside era ble dis
tance. The most 4 signal damage,
however, ofzWhich I've have heard
was done at the quarry. There was
evidently a cloud burst in that
vicinity. The entire plant was
almost destroyed. An eighty
horse engine and boiler were
washed considerable distance
and great damage was done to the
crushing machinery and building.
The two large holes, one OF which
was a quarter of a mile in length,
about seventY-ive feet deep and
several hundred yards wide, were
filled to overhowing. So great is
the volume of water in them that
MIR. Thomas. the efficient manager,
says that it will take more than a
month to pump it out with two IL
inch centrifugal pumps. The
quarry will probably not be in full
operation again for two months,
which will not only entail con-
