On last Thursday, the End of All
ust, there was a cyclone pas$
through this section doing gret
deal of damage to the corn crop, blos-
ing of the corn, breaking the stall
off at the roots. Some think the daE
age to corn is one-third and in sore
fields it looks like one-half so e
can't hardly estimate the damaf.
This wind seemed to be very narrG
in it's travel The greatest damae
to proper is in this section. The dat
age to other property other than te
crops was the blowing down of bull
ings and unroofing houses. 1t blg
down Mr.. T. NJ. Twed's stable, but h
didn't hurt his mule. Some of the tiI-
bers fell in around the mule and ket
him penned up until they were 4
moved and he came out without an
hurt. 1t also blew some of the rot
off Mr.. Tweed's dwelling house. +
blew the roof off Mr.. A. Lee Gault
cotton house. This was a tin roj
and it blew some of the roof seyer
hundred yards away. Also~<str-A

the top off. Mr.. J. w. Pickens' stabis
was also damaged. Mr.. S. G.. Gault
had a dwelling house on his place
blown off the pillars and the house
was turned around, just reversed from
the way it was standing, moving il
from the chimney. What I have men
toned is the greatest damage done. 4
Most of this property was insured
and some of these will get pay from
the County Mutual Insurance com
pany. a
This writer was only damaged by
the blowing down of timber near his
dwelling, which might have been q
help to save some of his buildings
as he has few acres standing or
the south side of his house. The way
the wind came from and most of ths
largest trees were blown down.
