MEN STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.
Auckland, This day. A thunder squall passed over Wangarei heads on Wednesday. Mr Hannah, survtyor, and two men, who were at the trig station on Bream Head, were struck by the lightning, which went through their coat sleeves and down the leg of one of the men, which was badly burnt. Mr Hannah suffered also. All lay insensible for some time, but have recovored. That they escaped with their lives they regard as wonderful.
