when lightning struck him on his
shoulder and almost knocked him
down. A Mr. Scruggs CHANGED to be
holding on to his arm and the shock
went through him too. ''Tot's''
arm ached all night. The town, be-
ing in a low place, escaped destruc-
ton but everything ON the outskirts
was blown away. The people who saw
the cyclone coming ran into pits and
escaped it's fury. A barn was blown
down, killing two mules, and pinning
three men under the ruins so they
had to be sawn out. 1t was fearful
experience but his friends are thank
full he escaped with his life. Big
rocks and trees twelve inches in dia-
meter were blown through the sides
Of wooden houses. One man who
had the side of his head blown off
by contact with flying tree is ex-
pected to recover.
