CORINNA FARM
HOUSE BURNED

Corinna. July 25.-The scene of the
Wayland Philb-ick tragedy was again the
centre Of public interest Monday night at
about 1890 o'clock. WI en-. during an cleo
trical shower lightning struck the barn
of the Philbrick farm on the Dexter road
a Corinna Center, burning it to the
ground together with the dwelling. Light
nlng also followed the telephone wires
into the room on the ground floor where
Mrs Achash Philbrick, mother of Way
land Philbrick, who was mysteriously
murdered about a year ago. and the hired
man was sitting making a hole in the
floor two feet square and passing into the
ground beneath. Only a moment before
Mrs. Philbrck had moved the couch upon
which she had been sitting. away from
the telephone and even then so near was
it that the bolt took off a splinter Of wood
from one end The bolt plowed its wav
through the floor in the identical spot
where the couch had stood before it was
moved by Mrs. Philbrick as a precaution.
Neither Mrs. Philbrick nor the hired man
was injured although both were in the
room at the time.
The barn was practically new one and
will be serious loss to Mrs. Philbrick
as will be the loss of her home. No
stock was burned but al of the poultry
rerished. Several autos drove to the fire
from Corinna but assistance arrived too
late to put the fire out or to save much
of the household goods.
The same shower struck twice in Exc
ter, destroying the store owned and man
aged by Carl D. Smith and the saw mill
owned by Lester s. French.
