(Continued From First Page) ' '',' our house in the air," he stated. "I slammed the door and my wife, son and I huddled in the hall as the storm struck. It was over ten seconds later and there we were in the open air. Our house had been shattered to pieces.' The Little home was owned by D. B. Oliver of Pine Level. Other Damages At the Archie Woodird home, in addition to the damage to the house, two tobacco barns were blown down, 500 chickens were lost and i'00 pounds of meat was blown away. The Wood ard home is the property of Allard Creech. At the Garland Howell place, which is owned by Fred Hinnant, a smoke house and shelter were splintered and parts of the outbuildings vere scattered over a field of newly-planted cotton. The Howell dwelling was picked up from its foundation by the tornado and moved a distance of 10 or 15 yards. The Howells lost 200 pounds of lard and 300 jars and can ned fruit along with other destroyed belongings. Joe Tom Creech's home, owned by Fred Holloman was moved from its foundation and badly torn up, though not totally destroyed. House I'nrooffd Clarence Strickland's residence, situated on the edge of the storm's path, was unroofed and shaken from its foundation. A meat house, stables, packhouse and chicken house were also damaged at the Strickland place. In the chicken house a can of kero sene spilled and drenched 475 biddies, some of them dying. E. O.

Monroe Pittman of the Pitt man Hatchery in Selma, who was re turning from Goldsboro, said soon af ter coming across the overpass about a mile this side of Princeton, he saw debris flying in the air and recog nized the storm as a tornado. Mr. Pittman said: "I knew my old Pontiac would do its stuff, so 1 began stepping on the gas. I kept one eye i on the road and the other on the I storm, and the further up the road I i came the more 1 became convinced that I was facing destruction unless ; 1 could clear the path of the storm I before it hit the highway, so I step- ped on the gas some more. I saw j huge sheets of something scurrying I around with the storm as well as j tops of tree?, l'mbs, boards and every ! conceivable article imaginable jurt flying in the air, all going at light ning speed in a circle. I raw a bomber plane approach the center of the storm and then appeared to take a i nose dive and shot out of my sight into the swirling mass of storm clouds. I did not see the plane any more. 1 was greatly impressed by the movement of the dark mass of clouds surrounding the center of 'he storm which were being sucked in with a speed like nothing 1 had ever seen before. I -passed before the path of the tornado only a few hundred yards from where -it crossed the Vrghway. at whi-h )oint I was in the outer rim,; and while there had fallen practical ly no rain up to: that time, the hei ens seemed to open tip and tlie greatest deluge of, rain I have ever seen came sweeping, down, obliterat ing all vision and forcing me to' slow down until the worst had passed. "';. Mr. Pittman says a.- a rule he is not easily excited, but said he would .have to .admit that vi one time when he felt quite insecure.
