Miss Nannie Aiken, of Snapping Shoals Dead From Injuries Received Last Week.
  Miss Nannie Aiken, of Snapping Shoals, died at the home of her brother,
Mr. Will Aiken last Friday and the funeral occurred Saturday afternoon. Her 
death was caused from injuries received during the severe hail and wind storm
of last week, from which she never rallied.
  Miss Aiken lived at the home of her brother, Mr. Will Aiken, whose home
was blown down and a lot of damage done to his property,and he sustained
very painful injuries at the same time. Miss Aiken was seriously injured
and but little hope was had for her recovery from the start. Her death
was a sad one and her many and relatives are grief-stricken over her
untimely end.
  In the section where Mr. Aiken lived there was considerable damage 
done to property and a number of homes were blown down. Barns and out-
houses all through that section were completely demolished, and in a number
of places they were blown a considerable distance.
