Heaviest Rainfall In Many Years.

Goodwill, s. O., June 17.-And it keeps
on raining! Not since the August storm
of 1893 have streams in this section been
as high as now. For 10 years the writer
has been a close observer of the weather
at this place, and in all that time has
never seen 80 much water on the land at
one time with the possible exception OF
the 1893 storm. And it has all fallen
since Tuesday morning.
Friday afternoon, between and 6
O'Clock, it seemed as IL the deluge had
come. In 20 minutes the already full
streams had increased in height between
six inches and foot, covering land
marks that were never before been under
water. For a level country like this
means rise of 10 to 20 feet in the hiily
sections.
RAIN AND WIND IN ANDERSON CoTNTY

age to the crops in some sections OF the
county. A rain and wind storm passed

wind and hail. Columbus Pruitt's dwell
ing was partly blown down by the high
wind and small outbuildings on several
farms were destroyed. Young cotton
and grain was badly riddled in places by
the hail.

No blessed leisure for love or hope,
But only time for grief!
