1854 - Storm

THE STORM of last week was very severe with us, but much more so in other parts. At Manchester several unfinished buildings were blown down. At Keene and in that vicinity much damage was done. - Several barns and sheds were unroofed, chimnies and trees were blown down. At Northumberland in this State, according to the Lancaster Democrat, the gale was tremendous. The bridge across the Connecticut covered, and 300 feet in length, was literally lifted up and set down upon the river below, where it still furnishes a convenient crossing for foot passengers. Chimnies, fences, barns, sheds, were blown down, and other damage done.
