An attempt was made recently to blow up the parsonage of 
the First Congregational church at Dickinson.  A stick of dynamite was set off between the storm windows of the lower floor sleeping room, causing a teriffic 
{sp} explosion, blowing the casings through the room and an open door and through the dining room adjoining, breaking out a window on the opposite side of the house in the next yard.
