- (continued from previous page)and eleven there was a severe thunderstorm.
The lightning was so bad that it set Captain O'Hara's house on fire.
It killed a bullock on a man named Kane and killed a horse that a man was leading to Multy. The man luckily had taken his hand off the bit to bless himself and was not killed. This thunderstorm lasted for five days.
