ZEBEDEE SWAIM DIED IN UNION TOWNSHIP WEDNESDAY

LIGHTNING KILLS TWO COWS
Zeb Swaim, eight miles north, seems to have a share in all the bad luck that's going. His house and all its contents burned last winter and last Monday, he had a work horse fall dead in the harness; and Friday evening lightning struck and killed two good cows belonging to him. It appears that they were standing with their head partly under a wire fence, and the lighting struck and followed it until it reached the cows.
