Observations on a Hurricane in Ohio. 
were found of sufficient strength to resist the shock. » The trees 
were almost entirely blown down or broken off—the fences were 
completely scattered—the houses and barns were generally unroofed, 
and one house torn literally into pieces. 
For the purpose of render- 
ing my description more intelligible, I have drawn a plan of that part 
of the hurricane’s track where most of the injury was done.
