Last Saturday night the residence
of Frank Holmes was struck by
lightning and made as complete a
wreck as was ever made by a stroke
of lightning where fire did not fol-
low, the front end of the house was
tore out, all above the kitchen at the
back end was torn off, the house was
split open shingles torn off, and there
is hardly board or piece of timber
in the house that is not split or sbiv-
cred. BY the best of fortune Mr..
and Mrs. Holmes were out at their
claim when the house was struck.
With the exception Of clock and two
pictures nothing in the house was in
iured. Mrs. N. J. Underwood a
near neighbor says when the crash
came she looked cut the window and
saw what looked to her like ball of
fire on Mr.. Holmes house, immediat-
ly there was an explosion when she
heard noise like the house was being
torn to pieces. A great many people
viewed the wreck Sunday.
