Lightning Strikes Farm Residence and Also Kills a Mule
During an electrical storm yesterday afternoon out on the old State Farm at camp number one about 14 miles from here, lightning struck the house that was used by the overseer, and completely demolished the kitchen, and a mule that was standing nearby was struck and killed instantly. It was reported that there was a regular cloud burst out in that section.
