The Storm Monday Night.
The heaviest rain known to the
oldest inhabitant fell here Monday
night and Tuesday before day. The
downpour was accompanied by high
wind and an unusually heavy tliun
der storm, ln consequence of the
rain the creeks are all up and some
were made almost impassible.
Much damage was done to farms
and the cultivated fields being badly
washed and where corn had been
planted the work will probably have,
to be done over.
Tins storm had Us center near
Birmingham, Ala., and great havoc
was w rought there, a number of-peo
pie being killed and wounded and
many thousands of dollars worth of
property destroyed. The fury of
the storm was terrible in Georgia for
a train of cars was blown from the
traek near Ellaville in Schley county.
