Du ing the severe thunder storm on
Saturday night the large barn on the
Reece Hurff farm, near Shiloh, occupied
by Frank Crispin, son of Gideon Crispin,
vas struck by lightning and entirely con-
sumed. When Mr.. Crispin discovered

that he did not have time to get his live
stock out. Two horses, one mule, one
COW and two calves, all his bay and some
Of his farm implements were consumed
by the flames. The neighbors gathered
as quickly as possible and assisted in pre-
venting the spread of the flames to the

removing the sheds adjoining the wagon
house. There was an insurance in the
Hartford Insurance Co. of $500 on the
barn, 800 on the wagon sheds and $500
