The course of the storm can easily be followed, as vegetation of every kind is laid waste, and nothing but a mass of ruined wheat and corn fields and orchards and gardens are seen. In addition to the thousands of win dow panes of every size, from the colored church windows that cost all the way from SSO to SI,OOO to the small and large glass In public and private buildings, that were destroyed, the properties suffered from broken shutters, roofs blown off or broken. The loss to property in Waynesboro alone is placed at $200,000 at the low est calculation, and it was probably greater. To pass up and down the streets here after the storm reminded one of a bombardment with machine guns or artillery of a light calibre, as wreckage was strewn everywhere. In 28, 30, 32 N.

JUNE 8, 1917. 1 Center square hailstones piled up to a depth of eighteen inches and it took all day Thursday for several wagons to haul away the hail and debris. Fire qnglnes were used all night Wednesday and last night pumping water from the basements and cellars of stores and homes. Waynesboro housewives will get no apples,'peaches, pears, cherries, rasp berries, strawberries or any manner of fruit from the region covered by the hailstorm, a region reaching from the nunnery on the north. Green Hill Cemetery on the south, Shady Grove on the west and Rouzervllle on the east. Not a vestige of fruit remains, not a berry escaped the ruthless as sault. The largest orchardists in this storm-stricken region are the Nico (lemus estate, near Zullinger. the A. I}. Morganthall Blue Mountain or chards. north of Rouzerville, and the Amos Funk orchards on the Mentzer Gap road above White Mills. In addition to the loss of crops, Mr. Funk's farmhouse, formerly the Dr. Frantz place, was unroofed 'and the brick gables caved in. Part oT the roof of Mr. Funk's barn was blown off. A. P. Morganthall estimates his fruit and crop loss at SIO,OOO. The large orchards of 1"). M. Wertz, on the north; U. W. Harshman, Aaron New comer, John A. Johnson and others on the south, escaped beyond the hail limit. Mr. Wertz reported very little hall above the nunnery and says no fruit was knocked off.
