Inyulnerable.

Circumstances seem to prove the
correctness of the popular belief that
lightning will not strike q beech
tree. In q thunder shower at
town in Massachusetts,, a beech and
maple standing near together, with
branches inter'ocking each other,
received the electric bol', which
shattered the maple and passed into
the earth through PROSTATE hem
lock tree lying near. which was
stripped of its bark nearly the whole
length. No trace Of the lightning
was left upon the beech.
