Lightning Destroys Bed Without Harming Thomas Maness and His Baby Lying On It, 1916

The Monroe Journal, “The Union County Newspaper—Everybody Reads It!” Published Tuesdays and Fridays—One Dollar a Year. Friday, August 4, 1916

At Baden lightning struck the house of Mr. Thomas Maness and tore to splinters the bed on which he and his baby were lying without hurting them in the least.
