SOUTH BLUEHILL, Oct. 10 special The
house OF Capt. Medbury Eaton was
struck by lightning yesterday afternoon,
and badly damaged.
The light ming entered through the root
and played havoc in every room, passiu z
out at the corner of the house. One
place was set on fire, but jerry Eaton,
who happened TO be near, promptly ex-
tinguished this, thus saving the building
from burning.
The other occupants OF the house were
Mrs. Eaton and her young baby which
was lying on bed asleep. Pieces of lime
and glass were found all around the child
on the bed, but except for a scrstc h on its
he ad from falling lime, it Was unframed.
The house is insured, but so badly dam
aged that the insurance will barely cover
loss. The family cannot live in the
house.
After leaving the house the lightning
struck and killed calf a few rods away,
belonging to Jerry Eaton.
A number OF people felt the shock,
among them Mrs. Lowell Chstto, John
Morrison and wife, Louis Sullivan aud
Alvin Friend.
