LOOK OUT FOR THE CROSS MARK
Subscribers are requested to examine
opposite their names for the Red Cross,
which signifies that the time for which
they paid has expired, and unless they
notify us by return mail we will consider
that they do not desire longer to sub
scribe, and will* discontinue their paper.
We have heard so often complaints from
subscribers that they u cannot get pub
lishers to quit sending their papers,” that
we have determined to adopt the plan
of erasing a name the day the time ex
pires* If anyone desires his paper con
tinued, it is a very easy matter to notify
us of the fact. We extend to such sub
scribers our heart-fclt thanks for their
patronage, and if they don’t see proper
to continue a subscriber at this time, we
will be glad to have their names at any
future day.
Those who have not as yet paid will
receive their last paper this week. Their
accounts wHI be forwarded them next
week, and we hope that they will remit
the small amount at once, and save us
the further trouble and expense of again
writing them. Such will find opposite
their names a Blue Cross.
BEESE & LABE.
During a recent trip to Athens we
called at the new store of Reese A Lane,
in Lester’s Block. Wo found there a
stock of goods that would be an honor to
any city. They have a beautiful store,
well lighted, and not an old article or
remnant analog their stock. We would
advise our friends to give this splendid
firm a call by all mean *, when they visit
their city. Their advertisement will
shortly appear.
XEETINO.
The County Commissioners met in
Lexington on Tuesday last. They took
no action whatever in the small pox
matters.
DISCOURSE.
Ihe Rev. Mr. Foote, Superintendent
of the Methodist Orphan’s Home of
Georgia, addressed the Lexington Sun
day-school last Sabbath. The school
agreed to furnish one of the children
with clothing, Mr. F. also preached in
Crawford Sunday night. A large crowd
was present.
SALE DAY.
Last Tuesday, but few persons were in
Lexington, owing to the backwardness
of farming operations. Only one tract
of land was sold, containing 52£ acres,
now occupied by Mrs. Hmith, and in
which she owns a life interest, which
brought SIOO. It is near Lexington.
HON. Z. H. CLARK.
We regret to learn that this gentleman,
while walking in his farm last week, was
stricken with apoplexy, and remained in
an unconscious condition for some time.
He was discovered by some of his family
and carried home, where he gradually
recovered, and we are glad to announce
is again on foot.
SMALL POX.
This disease has entirely died out in
Lexington. Lake Brown and family are
again on foot and no new cases reported.
We feel that we can now announce the
glad tidings that our county is again
free from this loathsome disease, that
bus caused so much misery, death and
destitution the past winter.
CRAWFORD.
To properly appreciate our village one
must be subjected to siekness. Then
you will see most clearly the hearts of
our people, and can but utter a “thank
God!’’ that your lot is cast among such
kindness, untiring nurses, and true
neighbors. We hope that fate may ne’er
sever us from Crawford and her people
—hut if it does, no matter in what land
our lot be cast, we will always look hack
to the time we spent here with pleasure.
MARRIED,
On Wednesday last, Mr. J. R. Christy,
of Athens, and Miss Cora I. Barnett, of
this county.
To this couple we extend our hearty
congratulations. We have known Rufe
for years, and assure Miss Cora that if
he makes as good a husband as he is
clevCf she will never regret her choice.
He has ft splendid mind, and is one of
the most popular hoys in Athens.
COMMENDABLE.
Mr. Rough Lester* Of this county, who
was lately chief book-keeper in one of
the leading houses of Aiigusta, was
thrown out of employment by the dull
times. Instead of desponding and wait
ing for “ something to turn up,” he
came home, threw off his coat, and went
to work in the field. We say all honor
to such men. If we had several thousand
“jistsieh” in the South the country
would he better off.
I. 0. G. T.
At a meeting of Crawford Lodge, I. O.
G. TANARUS., the following gentlemen were ap
pointed as a committee to solicit contri
butions from the community for the re
lief of the sufferers by the tornado of the
Ist inst.:
J. J. C. McMahan,
J. C. Daniel,
R. S. Martin,
W. T. Witcher,
J. F. Cheney,
Persons wishing to aid these people
can do so by handing in their contribu
tions, whether money or supplies, to any
one of this committee.
Let us help them !
It may be OUR TIME next!
DEATHS.
Since our last issue Time with his
scythe has visited onr county, and claim
ed several of our oldest citizens.
The first on the list is Mr. James
Holmes, who had reached his 90th year.
He was taken very suddenly, and died
in a few hours.
Next we hear of the death of Mr.
William Cunningham. Like Mr. H. he
was seized quite suddenly, and while
some of his family were absent from the
room to prepare something for his relief,
he quietly breathed his last. Age 84.
Mr. Van Horn, an old man for some
years employed by Wilhite’s saw-mill
to cut stocks, who had seen his three
scorc-and-ten years, died last week. *
Mr. M. Brawner, aged 50, was also
summoned from this world of care a few
days since.
Mrs. Armstrong, living near Sandy
Cross, who had reached her 70th year,
also breathed her last a lew days since.
Mrs. John Armstrong, who lived near
Bairdstown, also died a short time since.
All of the above deaths occurred within
the past ten days, most of them being
from old age.
—Birda are beginning to pair.
CHIPS AND SPLINTERS.
—Tom Witcher has put an addition to
his house.
—Spring is on hand. Lettuce have
peas.

on his shirt-front to hide that soiled
spot.
—Flanders went to Athens this week.
He says if the world is as large the oth
er way as it is that it’s a whopper.
—Calico was on the rise Saturday. The
eyes of the boys had a downward ten
dency.
—Never ask charity of a man who
don’t smoke. For softening the heart
one cigar is worth a dozen lectures.
—The nights are still very cool, and
fire is pleasant until a late hour of morn
ing.
—Uncle Ann found a man wrapt in
thought, and sent him off on the train of
ideas.
—The chip pile at this station is being
distributed in the mud-holes around
town. Good idea.
—Let our people assist, to the extent
of their means, the sufferers by the late
cyclone that visited our county.
—Dress skirts should measure three
and a quarter or three and a half yards
iu width.
—New subscribers to the Echo are
coining in every day, notwithstanding
the dull times and cash in advance.
—Four things look awkward in any
woman—whistling, climbing a picket
fence, throwing a rock, and kissing a man
through a crack.
—The trees are putting on their sum
mer plumage, and the leaves will soon
be grown. How some of the hobblede
hoys of Crawford do envy the leaves.
—Rumor says that large crinolines are
again to be worn. Mat Norton had bet
ter box these young trees he sat out on
the sidewalk.
—Our friend Miles D. is certainly a
benefactor of the human race. In his
farming operations last year, he “caused
two blades of grass to grow where one
grew before.”
—The colored people of Lexington,
under the leadership of Rev. C. C. Car
gile, propose to give an entertainment on
the night of the 12th. We hope they
will receive a liberal patronage.

Washington, put in appearance yester
day. Mr. F. is so pleasant in his man
ners that his presence in Crawford is
always welcomed by our citizens.
—A country editor cannot be as bold
and independent in his paper as his city
brother. He has to collect his own sub
scriptions, and almost everybody in the
country keeps a dog.
—The Lumpkin Independent claims to
have the cleanest office in the State, so
far as “ pi” is concern. If our brother
of the Independent can find a spoonful of
“ pi” in the Echo office we will give him
the establishment.
—Change of Profession—One of the
leading members of the Lexington bar,
on his way from Wilkes Court, entered
Lexington picking a banjo and singing
“ Put Me in My Little Bed.” His friends
put him there.
—Slight symptoms of matrimonial fe
ver is being developed in Crawford. The
girls don’t eat onions on Sunday, and
the boys parade the streets with their
botton-holes lined with flowers. Look
out for squalls /
—These are the nights for star-gazing
with your sweetheart,. even if you are
kept busy brushing the dew from her
lips with your moustache, to keep it from
getting into her throat and giving her

The Storm King Again Abroad in the State
o
Our County Visited—Two Killed
and Many Wounded.

Help ! Help !! fop the Saffereas
ir
On last Saturday, another tornado,
similar to the one of the 20th of March,
entered the western par| of the State in
Harris county, and traversed the entire
breadth of the State, crossing into South
Carolina from Lincoln county.
Our own county was in the track of
the frightful war of the elements, and
great destruction was done to property
and several lives were lost.
Elsewhere we publish extracts from
private letters kindly furnished us, giv
ing details so far as heard from.
The storm, before it entered our State,
seems to have harbored all its fury to
pour on the heads of our citizens, and
after it crossed the Savannah river its
ravages, though terrible, still were not
half so severe.
Thus, within the short space of two
months, has our State been called on to
bear misfortunes which, added to the
weight the people were already carrying,
has well nigh ruined the commonwealth.
We hope our citizens will contribute
as liberally as they can to the succor of
the unfortunates, and to that end we
suggest that committees he formed to
solicit and take charge of such contribu
tions as our people feel themselves able
to render. Let every one give liberally,
for we know not how' soon we may he
called on to suffer from a like calamity
ourselves. It seems that a terrible Ne
mesis is hanging over our State, and we
know not who will next fall under the
the terrible stroke of the storm kind.
[A private letter reeeived by a gentleman in
Crawford.]
Bairdstown, May 2, 1875.
Doubtless you have heard of the tor
nado that passed over this section on
yesterday, and as you might feel some
anxiety in regard to our safety here, I
have thought proper to write you that
your mind may be relieved of any appre
hension so far as we are concerned.
This village w T as not in the direct path
of the storm, but was in the edge of it,
and, consequently,the damage was slight,
comparatively. A few out-houses were
blown down. The lumber-house attach
ed to the carriage shop was blown down,
as also a barn of W. R. Wilson, Esq.,
and my own smoke-house was smashed
in by the falling of a tree across the roof.
No one was hurt, but the fences and
trees were scattered about promiscuous
ly. But the destruction was terrible
where it passed, and I will try to give
you some of the details of it as far as I
have been able to collect them from par
ties who v had just returned from its path.
It was between a half mile and a mile
wide, and erossed the Oconee river about
the old Poullain Quarter, just below Scull
Shoals, and, I learn, destroyed nearly
every building on that place. We next
hear of it at Wm. Jewell’s, who lives at
the old Sugar-tit place, demolishing his
premises. From there to Mr. Red As
bury’s, near Macedonia Church—did not
harm to houses, but fences and forests
were torn to atoms. At Asbury’s it did
not leave a single house. It blew his
dwelling, which was a two-story frame
building, to atoms, carrying some of the
timbers a mile and scattering the con
tents in every direction. Strange to say,
no lives lost, yet his family were all in
the house at the time. Mrs. A. received
some injuries, among which was a severe
bruise on her head. The smaller chil
dren were lying on a little bed, and af
ter the tempest subsided crawled out
from the ruins unhurt. Asbury himself
was not at home, but arrived soon af
ter it was over to find his home a wreck,
though his family all alive. Just east of
this place lives, as you are aware, Mr.
Augustus Brightwell, whose place,l think,
is called Berryville. It completely de
molished every house there except his
dwelling, and that might as well have
been, for it is so badly shattered that it
is unfit to live in. His store-house was
blown to pieces, killing two men and
seriously wounding two others. The
killed are Mr. George Maxey and a negro
man whose name I could not learn. His
clerk, a young man by the name of Jack
son, and a wounded negro, it is thought,
will die from their injuries. The dead
negro was found over a hundred yards
from the store, lying against a stump
with his neck broken. Brightwell’s
goods were scattered pell mell over tho
neighborhood, some articles having been
picked up more than a mile from there.
There was a Justice Court in session
there, and consequently a good many
had collected. Sheets and other articles
were seen hanging in the trees in this
vicinity. My informant stated that not
a vestige of a fence was left on these two
and the debt nation of timber was

terrible. From here it went in an easter
ly direction, crossing the railroad about
H. T. Bouehelle’s, between here and
Maxey’s Depot, and John Jewell’s old !
place, sweeping cabins, barns, gin houses,
and leaving desolation in its path. The j
amount of damage between Brightwell’s i
and the railroad is not yet fully ascer- |
tained. It capsized the gin-houses of j
Mr. Epps, and Mr. Jewell’s, and I learn j
destroyed every house at Bouchelle’s
except his dwelling, and injured that
smartly. Charles Bryant, a son-in-law
of Marshall Epps, and living on his
plantation, had a remarkably narrow es
cape. The house he lived in was made
of logs, and at the time the storm struck
it he, with his wife’s relatives, were in
this house. They all got under the beds,
and the house was blown to pieces and
the logs tumbled about in every direc
tion, leaving it only five logs high, and
yet not one of them was hurt or even re
ceived the slightest bruise. Isn’t it re
markable that a house could be tumbled
to pieces over the heads of people as is
the case here, and at Asbury’s, and still
no one is killed and even very little in
jury done? It does not seem reasona
ble, and yet it is true, for I saw Bryant
myself to-day, and I have just seen some
gentlemen returning from Asbury’s and
Brightwell’s, and they assert it as the fact.-
Passsing across the railroad, it struck
the plantation of Judge McWhorter and
that of Mrs. Moody, whose residence is
badly injured. A portion of Judge
McW’s ginhouse was blown away, ami
some negro quarters we re also destroyed.
The last I heard of it was at Mr. John
F. Smith’s,where I learn it did consider
ble mischief. The particulars there I
did not learn, though it is rumored that
his dwelling is the only house that is left
standing. Rumors have reached us here
of terrible destruction through Morgan
county and beyond the Oconee. I can
only give you a partial account of its
effects this side of the river, in that di
rection, and beyond Smith’s in the other
direction. I have a3 yet heard nothing.
I have heard of a good many places
where stables have been blown from
over horses and cattle—not a single in
stance where one has been killed. The
destruction to plantations in the way of
fencing and other concomitants is im
mense. In fact, it has totally ruined
some, so far as a crop for this year is
concerned. The lands are all seriously
injured by rain, for it fell in drenching
torrents for more than two hours.
It is impossible to give you the full
amount of damage done at this early
day. My opinion is, what we here have
beard is not a drop in the bucket to
what we have yet to learn. It is dread
ful to think of it. This country is being
most awfully scourged for some reason
or other. It does seem that
“ Disasters on disasters grow,
And those which are not sent we make.”
Poets sing of the beauty and grandeur
there is in storms and tempests; arid you
remember a little sffrfg we used to sing in
Sunday-sclfool, called the “ Hymn of
Beauty.” In the description of the beau
tiful, it says—
“ When the storm king shouts in glee,
And the hollow tempest ra*e,
Oh that is beautiful!”
This all may be very pretty to sing
about, or talk of, at a distance, but I
don’t want any more in mine. We were
in the edge of it, and that is a little near
er than I ever care to be again. May
Heaven deliver our peQple from such
another visitation!

great destruction it made in its path.
Those who yesterday were blessed with
comfortable homes, with all the conven
iences which had taken years to supply,
to be in a moment deprived of all, is a
picture to make the heart sad.
Yesterday,- between 2 and 3 o’clock in
the afternoon, could be seen in the west
a terrible-looking cloud, the lightning
playing incessantly through it, followed
by heavy peals of thunder. At first it
created but little attention, but as it
neared ns I was apprehensive of it, and
feared danger. On it came with the
swiftness of lightning. It was fearful to
behold. The whole heavens in the west,
looked as if it was on fire*; it was nett*
upon us. I gathered my little babe, told
Myra to follow me, and we flew to seek a
place of safety. By the ,tinie we could
reach Flemming’s store it was upon us.
Trees which have. Stood the storms of
ages fell on all sides. The houses rocked,
and we expected every moment to be
swept from the earth, but we escaped the
fury of the storm. Our houses at Max
ey’s did not leave us, but how they stood
I cannot tell. But not so fortunate were
many of our friends and others.
From Poullain’s quarter, below the
factory, to this place, there is but two or
three houses left. It blew away all the
houses near the ford at Sandy Creek —
the Bnrgess place —and every house at or
near the Sugar-Tit ; followed the road
from 'Sugar Tit to Maxey’s, blew
away the „ house
just this side of Macedonia Meeting
house, on the left of the road coming this
way, now owned by Mr. R. T. As bury.
His wife and three children, all girls,
were in the house at the time. Mrs. As
bury was seriously wounded, and one of
the little girls had a finger cut off. Tin?
others escaped unhurt.
It demolished every house on A. T.
Brightwell’s place, exceptoife little cabin
which was in the edge of the tornado.
His wife and two children were in the
house at the time it was blown all to pie
ces, but escaped without a bruise. His
store-house, which was a large two-storv
building, was blown all to pieces. There
was ten or twelve people in the store at
the time, two of whom were killed—Geo.
AV. Maxey, son of Meadow Maxev, and
a negro by the name of Peter Wiftsoi/.'
Two were mortally wounded. Iladdy
Poullain and a negro Woman. Ilis clerk,
Wm. Jackson, is severely wounded, and
fourteen others received painful wound*.
Some had their arms broken, and other*
iheir heads wounded.
It destroyed W. A. Porter’s gin-house
and several other houses ; blew down the
chimneys and a part of Lizzie and Fanny
Moore s house, and every outhouse on
the place. There were eighteen houses
demolished on A. T. Bright well’s pladc'
I could go on and mention many oth
ers that would fill up sheets of paper.
It did not spare a single house at Poul
lains lower quarter, below the factory.
Nearly every tree in the beautiful grove
has been destroyed. Beyond that we
have not heard from. It blew James
Arthur’s house away, who lives only
half a mile from here, and carried his
wife fifty yards. There was three little
children in the house with her. When
she recovered, she made her way back
to where her house was, and found her
little fellows sitting where the house had
stood.
No one who never saw a tornado ha
any idea what it is.
All is excitement and confusion at
this time. The people are bewilder!.
Everybody is expected to turn out to
morrow aud help rebuild the lt-nee*.-
A great many Worked to-dav.
Below are the names of those killed
and wounded.
