'Sttb 4nother Hail Storm. - Much
Damage to Crops IN Wester,,
Portion Of County.
Another destructive hail storm
visited this county Tuesday even
ing, the heaviest portion of which
struck the river section. Among
the plantations on which the
greatest damage was inflicted are
those of Messrs. w. Med. Brown.
ID. l.. Adams, w. j. Williams
and John Bell. The hail fell for
nearly an hour and was accom-
panied by severe wind and much
rain. Both cotton and corn were
seriously injured, and in some
localities the cotton plant was
practically ruined. Hundreds of
acres are so badly affected that
the yield cannot possibly exceed
half crop even under the most
favorable conditions. Corn was
not only hurt by the hail stones,
the blades being split into rib
bons. but fields Of it we're blown
down by the wind.
Hail also fell in the Douglass
community and in the Antioch
section, but not in sufficient
quantities to do much damage to
crops.
