On the 11th we were visited by a more violent storm of wind than has perhaps ever before occurred in this part of the country in the summer season, certainly never remembered in the month of June. At sun rise the atmosphere was calm and cloudless, and so continued till near seven, when the clouds rose, and the wind blew in gusts, which carried away leaves and fruit of all trees exposed to its force; the storm, however, was not at its height till noon, from which time, till near five, it blew with such terrific force, that many lofty elms and oaks were torn up by the roots, and thrown upon the ground. In several gardens the trees have lost more than half their fruit. The appearance of the leaves is that of having been parched by heat, arising, however, merely from the violent concussion. Haymaking, which had been in most cases deferred till the 10th, in hopes of rain, was a complete scene of confusion; any attempt to keep it together in the open field was fruitless, and in some cases the meadow parted with its grass, to cover a field of potatoes; while in other cases, where adjoining fields have been the property of more than one, it has led to strange controversies as to how much the neighbour's field may have been benefitted by the gust of wind.
