The Storm In Gilmer.
The big storm last Thursday
night which did much damage
and caused many deaths in
Georgia, Ala., Tenn., and Miss.,
passed through this county east
of Ellijay and destroyed three
houses oft Mr Sherman Henson’s

Cloningers barn and wrecked
some houses and barns on Tur
niptown besides destroying much
timber and blowing down a lot
of fencing in its path.
Fortunately no loss of life is
reported from this seciidn, altho
ini. Mr. tuuiviy Emory Hejnson’s .i..i.uiiauu s family xaiiJiiy had riau
a narrow escape when their house
was blown down over their
also the family of Mr.
on the Hqnson farm whose house
was unroofed, but all escaped in
their nightclothes in a drenching
rain and vvfiit to Mr Hensons.
It was a scary time and the con
tinuous Hashes of lightftirtg and
the down pour of rain was ter¬
rific and awful.
The greatest damage we have
hoard of was in Gordon county
where a number were killed and
wounded, ami in DeKalb county
near Atlanta.
The list cv dead all over t he
southern States number about
99, and the property loss will run
into the millions.
