Heavy Damage as Hail Sweeps Clinton District Loss to crops of many thousands of dollars was caused by a hail­ storm that swept suddenly across the Clinton district Sunday after­ noon, Iix a terrific bombardment, hailstones ranging in size from half to three-quarters of an inch in dia­ meter cut leaves in showers from trees, levelled hay and wheat and cut to ribbons such crops as corn, potatoes, tomatoes and othex’ gar­ den truck. In some places hail­ stones covered fields to a depth of four- inches. The storm started northwest of Clinton and devasted an area several miles to the south­ east of the town. It was the most destructive storm in the memory of. old residents. Some hail fell in the vicinity of Exeter but no damage was done. At Seaforth hail, driven by a fifty- mile-an-hour wind, stripped trees and fields and caused considerable damage to field crops during a thirty-minute deluge. The village of Egmondville, a xnile .south of Sea­ forth, reported two inches of hail fell in half an hour, Traffic was slowed to a crawl.
