Hollis, of Buena Vista, was on a visit to her daughter, Mrs. E. Taylor, in Lee County last week. One day while there, observing the clouds a dog was lying asleep during a rain, she was standing in the door on the veranda near her feet, when a sudden flash of lightning seemed to envelope her in a sulphurous flame. As it passed away the dog was found quivering in the throes of death, while the lady was unharmed, not even sustaining a shock, but she experienced a severe fright after viewing her miraculous escape from death. – Sumter Republican File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ga/marion/newspapers/nw1569mrsjfhol.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/gafiles/ File size: 1.3 Kb
