Severe Storm and Flooding in Jamaica

One of the most fearful storms that Jamaica has ever known, has swept over the island. After torrential rains lasting many days, serious floods occurred. All telegraph lines are down, and railroads have been badly washed out. Within a radius of ten miles of Port Maria, banana fields were entirely laid waste. The town of Annotto Bay was for a time three feet under water. Kingston fortunately suffered little.
