Another holt went through the roof over the loft door, I followed down the wail and separated, part continuing to the ground and part following a wire to tha opposite side of the manger from the first mention-1 ed where it proceeded to manufacture more kindling. The editor saw the ightning hit the barn and noticed dis tinctly the resulting smoke and dust. The barn was empty and no other damage resulted.
