Storm :blasts
village area
RaM, which bad been predic-
ted for days, finally bit Lateen
with a vengeance Wednesday af-
ternoon. The electrical storm was
accompanied with almost cyclo-
nic gales and hail stones as large
as small marbles.
The former blew down dozens
of trees, ripped off branches,
blew in windows, disrupted hydro
and telephone service.
Liman seemed to receive the
full brunt of the storm. Outside
the Village there was little dam,
age done. Hydro was off for
several hours.
A tree across William St. and
a'nother across Market St. neces-
sitated the re-routing of holiday
traffic, until the trees could be
removed
A transformer near the organ
factory was hit by lightning and
knocked to the ground, burning
out nearby fuse boxes. A piece of
roofing from one of the stores
landed on a car beneath.
Though the village received
much damage yet no one was
injured though several had nar-
row escapes. While Mr. J. S.
'Thompson ran out to rescue his
garbage can, bricks from his
chimney fell on his steps where
he had been standing,
Miss Muriel Carling attempted
to put her car in the garage and
just missed being hit by a falling
tree which broke down part of
their back verandah. A large trot
on the Anglican Church lawn
was uprooted but luckily did no
damage to the parish hall.
The London Free Press sent
out photographers, who tooks pic-
tures for Thursday's paper and
also for TV. One of the, pictures
for the latter was the big tree
that fell on the front porch of
Mr. Austin Chisholm's home on
Water St.
