- About 39 year's ago there was a great storm the like of which was not there for 100 year's. Houses and barns were blown away. The people were up all night tying the roofs of their houses.
There was a woman who went visiting in the evening and she could not come home on account of the storm.
Her two sons were at home and they went to bed. When she came home in the morning there was no house, only the bed, and the two sons were sleeping in it. They never heard the storm.
