  1. (continued from previous page)
    thunder storm took place. Fearful flashes of lightning blazed through the sky, followed by terrible rattles of thunder. It commenced at ten o'clock and kept increasing the whole day long. Many houses and trees were burned to dust with the lightning. All the people stayed inside in their own houses praying that the storm would pass away.
    In the evening it began to go down and everybody was pleased. When it had passed away everybody talked of the damages it had done.
