Strange electrical strike uproots branch in Hopkinton NH

In Hopkinton New Hampshire a single electrical current felled a two foot diameter branch from an ancient tree in front of Mrs Su A Stanwood’s home. The force also snapped two elm limbs and left a scorched trunk mark twenty feet up. No thunder or rain accompanied the event. Locals only heard an explosion like firecrackers. Authorities believe ground current rose to the tree and dissipated. Nearby farm exports and assorted ads appear in the same column.
