of the tower. The part which passed out
the E. side made a fracture on the out-
side of the N. centre recess on its N.
side, but the inside is considerably
shattered in the centre of the. E side of
the tower. The outside fracture is about
5 ft long perpendicularly and averaging 6
inches in width. The part which passed
through the N. side of the tower went down
the side of the tower till it reached the
main roof; here it tore the roofing canvas
from the fastenings on the inside of
the main roof parapet, and apparently
went down the roof drain pipe to the
large cistern without doing further
damage.
You will perceive that the damage
is to Dome and Tower, consisting of
woodwork and lash and plaster work.
The main building is all right except
the two upper circular window frames on
the S. side of the tower. These are shattered
and blackened though but one light of
of the tower. The part which passed out
