Benson.--A severe hail and WIND
storm visited a portion of Elevation
township. It seems that the worst
of the storm was five or six miles

destroyed all growing crops. Cotton

was literally torn to pieces by the
stones, some of which were as large
as hen eggs. Panes of glass were
broken out of the windows of most
of the houses and a great deal of ex-
citment prevailed while the storm was
doing the worst.
