Two of the churches, the Presby- terian and the Roman Catholic, were damaged by chimneys falling through the roof. On Main St. part of the roof of the Ford garage was blown down and the sign torn from its fastenings and the front of the old blacksmith shop opposite the Methodist church was blown out and. fell to the side- walk. Mrs. Detwiller's house in the south ward lost part of its roof, Mr. T. W. Roney's stable roof was car- ried across the street, but the great- est loss was sustained by Mr. Wm. Forrester, whose brick storehouse was completely wrecked, the brick walls broken down and the roof spread on the ground. Outside the town Mr. Forrester had two wind- mills and two barns dismantled. He estimates his loss from $1500 to $2000. The Nursery Co. was also a heavy loser as much glass covering was broken and some pleats frozen. The loss is estimated at $1000. The smoke stack on Eizerman's mill was blown down and the large driving shed of W. D. Perry on the Huron Road levelled. So many barn roofs lost part of their shingles that it is said that at one time twenty teams were waiting at Mr. Eizerman's yard for shingles.

We hope Mr. McLean will have every success in his new venture. The buricane which struck these parts Saturday night, whilst it only lasted a short time, left a trail of damage behind it, nearly every build ing suffering, some most severely. It happened at rather an unfortunate time of the year, it being a most difficult job to repair the roofs of the buildings. There was also a number of orchards badly damaged.
