i) WE XN WY ' - THORNTON'S CORNERS Thornton's Corners, July 29. -- The heavy thunderstorm this week, together with high winds and hail as large as marbles, has done considerable damage to some of the shade trees along the road, and several fruit trees were blown down during the storm last Wednesday. Hay that was cut is soaked again for drawing in for days to come. Corn is lying flat, but fine weather will remedy this, we hope.
