WILLIAM MESSICK was struck again yesterday. Jusy a few days ago, JOHN M RICHARDSON, a Georgetown lawyer, was eating lunch in Messicks dinning room when lightning struck a large chandelier over the dinning table, tearing it down, but doing no harm to the man. Yesterday, lightning again singled the Messick house for its pranks. At the same time yesterday lightning struck the large barn belonging to ARTHUR MARSHALL near Lewes and it was burned with all its contents and some livestock. Fortunately Marshall was able to get a valuable horse out before the fire reached the stalls. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ DE-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
