Killed by Lightning DURHAM - July 21 - During a thunderstorm last night the house of Neil McKinnon, Bentinck, about ten miles from here was struck by lightning and Mr. McKinnon instantly killed. His wife, who was in bed with him, was seriously injured by the electric fluid, her face, head and both arms being bruised and blistered. She was insensible for some hours but she is likely to recover. It is only about three weeks since McKinnon had five head of cattle killed by lightning while they were lying under a tree about fifty yards from the house. ,s 2 1 > I . '* tv '. Flesherton Advance.
