It knocked all the trees in the woods around. In other places rivers overflowed their banks and left many families homeless. In the year 1839 there was a third big storm and it was called "The night of the big wind" it was a terrible one a lot of people left homeless, cattle washed into rivers and drowned, houses knocked and ships wrecked at sea.
