Monterey Items.

As l noticed no news from here for
some time | will try to give some.
There has been plenty of rain the
past two weeks, with heavy thunder
and lightning.
On the 7th, within ten feet of e. A.
Hartzell's house, the lightning struck
a tree, smoke house and q clothes-line,
splintering the tree, tearing down the
line and bursting two boards off the
smoke house. On the 9th, near Camp
Ground, Mr.. Sid Webb's wife was
killed by lightning striking the house.
Mrs. Webb vas sitting near a window
after the storm. She was found dead
with her hair badly singed and her
clothing partly burned. Her husband
was at this place with his threshing
machine when the sad news came to
him.
Miss Fife Johnston is sick with
some slow fever. Drs. j. @. and John
Adams are attending her.
r. Z. Johnston, of Middlebrook, be-
gan harvesting his eighty acres Of
fine meadow at this place the 18th.

The Monterey school began on the
18th with Mr.. Joshua Bell as teacher.
Deer seem to be plentiful in these
parts. There has been two fawns
caught within the last three weeks.
We have later news of Sid Webb's
family. The same flash of lightning
that killed Mrs. Webb also injured her
baby-which was laying on a bed near
by-so badly that it died next day. 1t
also killed a dog a short distance from
the house. We are informed that six
of the family were injured. The Lord
works in mysterious ways.
