A 50 mile wind drove large hail- stones through every window in Hen- rietta and blew in the roofs of the three story St. Elmo hotel, several business buildings and a dozen resi- dences. Hail piled up a foot deep in Hen- rietta streets and a torrential rain which followed the rain storm came later to fill the basements. Wire communication from Henriet- ta was demoralized and damage in the rural vicinity could not be checked. Henrletta was in darkness last night but searching parties who used lan- terns and candles accounted for no casualty.
