Harriss called the Nashville, Tenn.. Nov. 21.— see was swept last night by the most nnes- destructive storm ever known in the state. Morethan fifty people were killed and a hundred while the damage to houses, timber more injured, aud other property will reach large range. Columbia’s casualties number twenty-five dead and some fifty injured. The path of the storm was about 350 yards wide and was through the | northwestern suburbs of the town. In its path ever. re || Noe stone fence of the arsenal grounds is | thing is completely | n the iron and | wreck standing. The hou Is and other Avdelott, the} | residences | Farre were demolished. With the exception of these houses | the storm's path was through a see- | tion of the town chiefly populated | by negroes and the poorer classes, and the houses were mere hovels. It is estimated that 150 of them were totally destroyed and a larger num- ber damaged. The suffering of these people rendered homeless and bereft of all their goods, is pitiable. The number of houses destroyed in the Nolansville neighborhood is 16. There were two fatalities. All of the sixteen houses were to tally destroyed. Mr. Hampton had $400 in money i this was blown away and only a part of it has been recovered. The baby of Jim Chrisman, negro, reported lost, was found 300° yards from the house at LO) o'clock lying near a branch, uninjured. fami At La Vergne, sixteen miles of here on the Nashville, Chatte One of the y dog: was lying by itsside. south 100- ga and St. Louis road, the velocity of the wind was marvelous, and from best reports lasted only about twen- ty-seconds.
