HAIL DOES MUCH DAMAGE
BAD STREAK FROM MASON CITY
SOUTH TO EASTMAN
Extremely Heavy Rainfall Around
Observation-Disclosures Put Out
of Commission by Storm

The storm Tuesday noon, which
hung to the southeast of Viroqua and
looked so black and vicious, vented
but little of its wrath around this inn
mediate vicinity Only nice rain
fell here, but in other sections it was
all that it looked to be. In the vicin-
ity of Viola and Readstown the rain
fall resembled cloudburst and put the
Kickapoo road out of commission for
a time. Fortunately it was accom-
panied by practically no hail That
much-dreaded plague of the tobacco
grower put in its appearance around
Mason City and from there south to
Eastman in Crawford County most
serious damage was done to the crop
Just at the critical time 1t is surely
a bitter disappointment for farmer
to shower his best efforts upon a nice
patch of tobacco all summer and then
see it taken from him in a few min
utes just on the eve of the harvest.

EAST CANAAN
Frank 5. Goodwin

Frank s. Goodwin, who died sud denly at his home in Sodom, on Wednesday morning, May 4th, was buried on Saturday last in the East Canan cemetery 2.45 p. m. The Rev. Robert Fletcher officiting. A service was held at 200 in the home, in which the Rev. Karl Skinner offer ed prayer and was largely attended by friends, acquaintances, and rela- tives from near and far; for MT. Goodwin was deservedly popular in ths district. s. -.,~~ ..~ .,.r'
 The Goodwin family is one of the old families in that part of the state. MT. Goodwin's father, Harry L. Goodwin, who was brought up by his uncle, Deacon Dennis Rood, in the lodge house at the corner of the road, built the house in which our late lamented friend passed away and in which he was born on the 10th of November, 1847. He was educated in the primary school of the district and continued his studies in the New Marlboro Institute, after which he took business course in a College in New York. Having qualified for commercial carrier he entered busi- ness in a store in Canaan and after time removed to another in Mill River, where he remained till occur ences at home called him to take charge of the affairs of the family.
 He married Miss Mary M. Cook, of Austerlitz, New York, who, with three children, Grace, Jesse, and Laura, survive him.
 MT. Goodwin was a kindly dis posed, upright man, of quiet retiring disposition, a fine reader and we'll informed on the current topics of the day; but his deepest sympathies were with matters of a religious character The Goodwin family were all supporters of the Church at East Canaan, where MT. Goodwin attended regularly, till indication of enfeebled health in later years, made caution necessary. Then he inter- ested himself in the little cause at Clayton, near his home, but never did he lose sight of the work at East Canaan, where Mrs. Goodwin and family continued to attend and which he reckoned to be his spiritual home.
 The more intimately one knew MT. Goodwin the more respect and admiration, for his sterling qualities, grew. He could not be trif1er, in any sense, if he tried---there was nothing mean about him. For friends and neighbors he was thoughtful and respectful: nothing that meant their good was of passing importance 10 him. In his decease the leighbor- hood is made all the poorer; for with him the last remaining link with the good old past has faded away, and cf this loss the whole neighborhood is sadly sensible.
