Lightning Shocks a Number of Worshippers, and Kills a Horse at a Church. Last Tuesday the congregation of Pleasant Hill Methodist church, between this place and Ehrhardt, where a protracted meeting is in progress, was considerably excited by a freak of lightning. Dinner had just been served in a grove, and the people were standing around in groups when suddenly there was' a flash of lightning which struck a small pine tree near the end of the table. A colored woman sitting on the end of the table, was thrown some distance and landed on her head, but was not injured. Quite a number of persons were considerably shocked, one lady being so severely stunned that she had to be taken home, while another lady's face was slightly burned. A horse belonging to Mr Lewis Aver, that was hitched about twenty-five yards from the table, was instantly killed. The horse was hitched to an iron bolt that had been driven into the tree, and just below the bolt a hole almost through the tree, and the size of a minnie ball had been pierced. The occurrance was more remarkable from tne fact mat tne ssy was ciear, anu no cloud was overhead, although a cloud was gathering, which came up after, wards. It is supposed that there were two bolts at the same lime, as two trees at separate places were struck. The people were very much excited, and consider it a miracle that the results were not more serious. Union Meetings, August 30-31. I?TOPICS. .1st.
