tial escape. The lounge stood under a
window in the corner Of the room. The
bolt passed back of the lounge, taking of
the base board, and nearly all the plaster
ing and shattering a studding under the
window into kindlng. The whole window
frame was Knocked out of place. Portions
of it were charrcd. The bolt tore of the
clapboards and a bracket on the piazza,
and made several holes i'm the piazza floor.
The whole corner OF the room was badly
shaken, Mrs. Lord was lying with her
head in the corner of the room.
The pins in her hair were scattered
about and there was smell of burnt hair.
Mrs. Lord sprang TO her feet with a scream
and fell into the arms of her husband un-
conscious. Nj. Lord was standing in the
centre OF the room al the time He was
unframed and felt no unpleasant sensa-
ton. save q very heavy report like large
cannon explosion. In the front room was

Nellie, like her father. felt no III effects OF
the bolt while Nj. Manley felt as if be had
been struck on the head with a board
while the room was filled with floating
stars. Mrs Geo. Heath was on the bed
in the bed room and did not feel a severe
shock. Or. Webster was called and pro
nounced Mrs. Lords injuries slight.
A slight blaze started and an alarm was
rung i'm from box 3 to which the Estey-
vile department responded and the fire
was put out 10y them before the steamers
from Elliot street arrived. From the same
bolt Mrs. Willard Ward on Pleasant street,
some 800 feet from Mr.. Lord 5. was knock

her husband in a dazed condition with
out any serious harm save that her speech
was affected for a time making her quite
hOarse. MI. Lords damage will probably
be from 500 to $500, fully covered by in
