  1. Folklore - A Great Storm

    Folk Lore
    A Great Storm.
    About six years ago a great storm swept over this part of the country. It was so bad that nearly every body stopped up that night. It was bursting in one of our doors until we had to put the tables up against it.
    When we went out next morning we found it had taken the roof off one of our out houses and left it about forty yards away.
