Stunt of Lightning Hits Parsonage in Whitehouse

During a thunderstorm at 4 o clock on a week Tuesday a lightning strike damaged the parsonage of Rev. William M. Trumbower in Whitehouse. Swords hung in the room were knocked loose, smoke and sparks filled the space, wallpaper burned, a bed sheet scorched, and a boy slept through the event. The sword melted slightly but no serious injuries occurred. Nearby notes recount the Mary Cole hanging in Essex County and Ringling Brothers retirement in later paragraphs.
