We hope he may find Plattsmouth a
good place to stop at and that he may
be as successful in his profession as
his heart could desire. One thing is
certain, he can't find any harder law
yer here, if names go for anything.
James Hall's stable was blown over
in the gale of the 20th and seven
horses mashed down flat. Strange to
say, five were uninjured and one was
killed outright. His son, 13 years old,
was also under the stable, having re
fused to leave his team when the
storm blew up. He lay down beside
a big mare and when he saw daylight
through an opening he crawled to it
and came out unharmed. Mr. Wetten-
camp reports his wind mill blown to
atoms and other damages such as
wind mills and shedding being blown
over in the neighborhood of Eight
Mile.
