During a rain storm in the late

the family were all shocked but a

of Mr. Hell and she was so serious
injured that at last accounts the
ysicians had but little hope of her
sovery.
The many frienos of Mr. Hell were
ined to learn of his misfordme.
Later a report coming from a
rson who was at the house when the
htning struck, says that the bolt
uck the gable end of the building
d tore up the end of the house,
ocking down a massive mantle
