Struck by lightning 200 Times,

A very singular record is attached to
deserted and ruined house at Dart
moor, England. 1t was built by a
wealthy landowner, with the intention
OF making it his country residence; but
before the building operations were
completed heavy thunderstorm broke
over D Artmoor, and the house was
struck Oy lightning, the roof being dis
mantled. The damage was repaired
and the house quickly nnished. No
sooner did the owner take up his resi-
dence in 1t than another violent storm
struck the house and destroyed the
chimney stack. doing, besides. consid-
cradle damage. This made the owner
nervous, and he left the house. 1t was
soon shown that his fears were not
groundless,for in nearly every thunder
storm that passed over the district the
house has been struck, and a fresh
portion OF it destroyed. Altogether Il
has been struck over 200 times.
