j. l.. Lee, who lives about four
miles northwest Of Walhalla, reports
q heavy hailstorm in his section
/ Monday afternoon. The ground was
well covered with hailstones, the
| greater portion of which were extra
! ordinarily large, ranging from part
ridge egg size to that of large hen
, eggs. Mr.. Lee measured some of
| the larger ones and found some in
excess of two inches in length, the
general shape being taht of an egg.
Several glasses were broken in the
windows Of his house and a number
OF shingles were knocked from the
roof The heavy, black cloud from
which the hail came passed in a
northerly direction, as near as Mr..
Lee could calculate passing over the
Picket Post section.

Darby and Mrs. George Ansel proved
to be the most adept in short speech.
A delightful sweet course was served.
Those present to enjoy Mrs. Bauk-
nights hospitality were Mesdames
j. b. S. Dendy, Darby, Herndon. Car
ter, Umberger, Steck, Blumner, Geo.
