Scope and content
In the early morning of April 23, 1943, a storm struck Tacoma doing extensive wind damage. Mrs. V. H. Jennings of 2716 No. Mason was awakened by a tree falling across her front porch. The 100 foot poplar uprooted itself during the storm, smashed a telephone pole into splinters and came to rest on the front of her home. The tree, measuring five feet through the base, had formerly grown next door to the Jennings. (T. Times 4/23/1943, pg. 1)
