The storm in Middle Tennessee practically followed the track of the late hurricane, sweeping away poles and fences in the north ern part of Giles county, through Maurice, hitting the little town of Gu loka again and into Rutherford coun- ty, of which Murfreesboro is the seat, and on to Liberty and Alexan- dria.
 The storm struck Murfreesboro about o'clock. ripping path through the west side of the public square and hitting the north side of the square with all it's fury. Nearly
