LIGHTNING KILL'S SEVEN.
Two White Men and Five Negroes
Dead and Twenty Injured.
A terriffic electrical storm passed
over the eastern portion of Chatham
County late Tuesday afternoon. The
power-house at Buckhorn Falls, 30
miles south of Raleigh, was struck by
lightning and two white men and five
negroes were instantly killed, and
about twenty other persons were
more or less injured. Some of them
may die.
All of them were employed In
building the new electric plant which
will supply electric power and light
to a number of towns. The 'phone
system was damaged and particulars
are hard to get, but there is no doubt
about the number of dead, as coffins
were ordered from Sanford.
This is the second fatal accident
at Buckhorn. Only a few months
ago four men were swept over the
Falls in a small launch and were
drowned.
