During the heavy thunder shower
Wednesday afternoon lightning struck
the barn of J. W. Emery. completely de.
molishing one end of it. The bolt seemed
to split in two, one half glancing off and
entering the ground, where it plowed a
furrough over 100 feet long. The other
half ran along the side of the barn into
the house. entering the room where Mr.
and Mrs. Emery and daughter Hazel
were sitting. Running along the wall II
struck a picture. breaking the frame and
glass, then running down struck an UNI
brella standing near the door. splitting
the handle. The occupants Of the room
were slightly shocked but were, fortu-
nately. not seriously injured. A peculiar
as well as fortunate circumstance was
that the buildings did not take fire at all.
The house was very little damaged.
