Struck by Lightning.

During the storm last Monday afternoon the lightning struck and burned the barn of Mr. Ledingham, townline of Holland and Glenelg. Two of Mr. Ledingham's sons were in the underground stables at the time, the lightning fluid passed down the wall within a few feet of where they were standing. They were considerably stunned. Several head of horses and cattle were in the stable at the time, but all were rescued, except three spring calves. There was a large quantity of hay and grain consumed. The barn was a double one, and was the most complete stock-barn in that section of the country and served as a land-mark for many miles around, being situated on an eminence which overlooked an extensive district of the surrounding neighborhood. The building was insured but what amount we have not learned.
