Mrs. H.W. Hunt slipped and sprained her ankle badly Sunday.

The young people had a lawn party at Paul Rossman's Tuesday evening.

During the electrical storm that passed over the county, Mrs. Josef Sutherland of the town of York, fearing the storm, retired to the cellar. Lightning struck the house, and the son, who was at a neighbor's house nearby, hearing the stroke, ran home to see what damage had been done. He found his father stunned and his mother lying dead on the cellar floor with her clothing on fire.
