Quite a severe wind and electric
storm passed through here Saturday
night, and all day Sunday the air was

me think of an article in a recent issue
of The News regarding soil accrecions
to the Baraboo hills from states to the
southwest Some who got up or were
blown up by the storm say it was
real twister. Local reports show the
loss of many windows and the strip
ping of shingles from roofs, but no
serious damage. An old tin bucket on
the wall at our place was undisturbed,
while the house directly across the
street had window blown out and
large patches of shingles torn from
the roof Wife was greatly frightened,
but | was too sleepy to take much no
tice except that the wind was blowing
and lightning flashes were frequent.
P. S. Since writing the above
hear of great damage at various points
caused by Saturday nights storm,
especially in Missouri and Kansas.
