KENToN, August 1:-During the

vicinity on Sunday, the residence of
n. II. Griffin was struck by a bolt of
lightning, which was grounded before
any material damage was done. The
family were in the house at the time
and escaped without any injuries save
a slight shock. The bolt seems to
have struck the corner of the house,
the fluid running down the rain spout
and tearing portion of the building
at the extreme corner. The occupants
of the house consider they we're ex-
tremely fortunate that the bolt did not
set the house on fire or play greater
havoc. The shock was plainly felt not
only by Mr.. Griffin but by the neigh
bors who lived next door.
