Dayton History

Here are some interesting con-
trasts of Dayton. Compared with
the large number of high-bracket
incomes in Dayton now, eighty
one years ago fewer than seven
hundred men in Montgomery
County paid any income tax at
all. They paid a total tax Of only
$63,347; only IA men had incomes
running to five figures. They ran
all the way from E. E. Barney at
$1O,713 to Alexander Gebhart at
$SO,498. Such men as Isaac Van
Ausdale with an income of $1,326
was considered a rich man in
those halycon days.

A tornado travelling with light
ing-like fury, struck the communi-
ty of Cloutierville near here Mon
day and left in it's wake three
missing Negro children, a wreck
ed Negro convent and several de-
molished homes.
Sheriff Earl Morris, checked
the attendance roll of a Negro
eschool, with an attendance Of 1O4
pupils, and said that only two
students had suffered minor in
%juries. The three children report
ed missing, it is said, probably
did not attend school on that day.
A Catholic nun in charge of the
school, said she saw the storm
coming and asked all the children
to pray as the tornado hit. She
said that the treacherous winds
assumed the shape of "a ball Of
somke." The school was a total
loss.
