"...The storm was at its worse about four o'clock, and about that hour Mrs. Frances Nobles, an aged lady living at Enterprise, down the river, was awakened from her sleep and went to the side of the room to put down a window which had not been closed. The lightning was at its worse, and at that moment struck a post near the window and Mrs. Nobles was instantly killed. The interment took place on the day following at the Singleton's burying ground in Buck's township. There was no sign of physical injury, and it is said that she may have been killed from the shock..."
