At Canton the worst damage was
reported of any place which it was
possible to reach. There the water
fell in torrents. resembling cloud
burst, and filing the cutters overran
the sidewalks, and in a number OF
places was reported to be knee deep

The rain was preceded by a heavy
hail storm which broke many win

snow. The photograph studio OF
Charles Ditwilder was badly damaged
by the hail, the skylight being COM
pletely broken out by the hailstones
and all the other skylights in the
town were ruined.
