This lightning struck the home of L. C. Biles on Fincherville Road Sunday night about 9:30 o’clock, running in on the kitchen sink and also damaged the stove, hot water heater and dish washer. Mr. Biles said that the lightning damage was con servatively estimated at SSOO MAXWELL HOUSE INSTANT COFFEE (Limit One) 12 Oz. Bonus Pack and that members of his family and neighbors put out the fire. The fire ruined the cabinets and sink with considerable smoke damage over the whole house, with the blaze and water ruining the carpets, especially in the hall and kitchen. The back porch floor was damaged heavily by the blaze. Mr. Biles said that the only thing saving the house was the gas pipe under the house caught fire and burs ted which caused the plastic water pipes to melt sending a flood of water both in the house and under the house. He estimated that there was probably two or more inches of water and that it was quite a problem sweeping the water out. The Biles home is a six room house plus two upstairs bedrooms and two large porches. Mr. Biles expressed appreci ation to friends and neighbors for their help.
