Twister Hits County; One Dead, Four Hurt
A roaring tornado ripped through the southern portion of Independence County late Tuesday afternoon, leaving one person dead, four injured, and a path of destruction that may exceed the $200,000 mark when all the damages are assayed. Dead is Mrs. Clara Lambert, 78, of Hutchinson Mountain, some 15 miles southwest of here. Mrs. Lambert, whose home was destroyed in the storm, was dead on arrival at a Batesville hospital.
