Hosfelt, near Cranberry, was stunned by
lightning last Saturday afternoon. He was
narrowing in field, driving two horses, when
storm came up. The lightning was vivid,
and bolt cut the reins in two, about eigh-
teen inches from his hand. A cane he held
in one hand was hurled about thirty yards
away The youth was badly stunned and was
carried home by his father. He did not re-
cover until about noon on Sunday. One of
the horses broke loose and ran off. The other
was affected, and became lame for time.
On the farm of John Stephan, about half
a mile distant, the the horses became restless
and frightened by the lightning, and the smell
of sulphur was strong.
