stouffville dot your repairs and new implements now j p cassidy phone 902 last saturday afternoon this section was visited by a cyclone which demolished the large barn on what is known as the joan lewis farm immediately west of the vill age the terrific wind blast is said to be the only one of its kind to have visited here in forty years and those who saw it hope it will be another forty before there is a re turn engagement at about 330 in the afternoon a threatening black cloud from the north was watched by many he- cause of its evident fierceness suddenly the blackness seemed to reach to earth in three shafts just over one of the fields on the davis farm and then the cyclone started breezing across the grain field it heaved the alfalfa and alsike heavenward and much of it still clings to the high wires of the telephone lines crossing the road as it travelled south the huge barn was right in the path of the cyclone which lifted the structure intact pome eight feet or more then it came heavily down on the stone foundation to crumple into fire wood under its own tremendous weight tons of hay was in the building and the largo doors were open at the tjjne taking in straw recause of this the wind had a better chance to do its work thos farrow employed at the barn seeing the storm rushed to the driving shed and got into an automobile tho top blew off the shed but mr farrow was uninjured a number of calves in tho stabling beneath were dug from under the debris and were uninjured but the pigs did not fare so well ona critter received a broken back and others broken legs no other stock was in the building had the storm been just a few minutes later it would have caught the men and team with another load of straw on the bain floor and some casualties might have been recorded a sininge ug3pas that ihe maple trees on the roadside in front of where the barn stood were not uprooted or injured in any way and while the cyclone started about 60 rods north of the barn it ended a few fields to the south of the wreckage without further damage the loss on the building which is owned by james hurry is estimated at around 4000 and is a severe one as the regular in surance policies do not cover loss from wind where there is no lire scarcely a whole piece of timber is to be found in the wreckage and pieces were carried twenty feet in to the air when the wind was at its night the whole affair happened in just a few moments when all was calm again another drowning at lake musselman miisselmans lake claimed an other victim when on sunday even ing william mcenery aged
