L st Saturday afternoon a

hat hoated over Geo. Glenns
house south of Indian Grove,
descended and performed a
couple Of pigeon wing circles to
the left and right and passed on,
but when Geo. Glenn and Grundy
Walker, who lives across the way
looked about them, they saw
Georges house sitting in a bad
ly racked condition about 30 feet
from where it had been NOM
ent before, and Grundy's house
skew-wampussed around and
torn up until he didn't recognize
it. Shingles and weatherboard-
ing were torn off the frames

al lopsidedness prevailing about
those two cozy little dwellings,
besides being out Of position by
