| [Matthew S. Marsh, who lives near New Salem, writes: "On the night of the
17th of August a tornado passed over this place, laid the fences flat, rooted up trees,
blew down corn and done other damage. The next morn by daylight as I was putting up my
fence, two great wolves walked along unconcerned within 50 yards of me."IHiāTrans., 1926, 125.] |
