The Huntsville Weekly Democart July 5, 1882
  Bibb Blade: “Sunday last, lightning struck the house of Mr. Alex Avery, jr., 
a mile from Centerville and severely shocked Miss Josie Avery, Mrs. Avery and 
S. D. Logan.  The stroke fell on Miss Josie’s neck and passed down, tearing 
her shoe off one foot, and throwing it some distance in the yard.  Mrs. A. was 
not so severely shocked, only having her shoe torn in one or two places.  Mr. 
Logan had the strings torn out of, and the sole wrenched off, one shoe and a 
hole torn in the other.  They and Mrs. Avery, who was not injured, were all 
the people about the house.  Mr. Logan and the two ladies were reported 
killed, but recovered in a little while and are doing well –all being up, 
though lame a little.”
