J. A. Graybeal of Rosemond township tells of an interesting hog story. Some months ago a cyclone occured on his farm, which, among other damage done, blew over a straw stack, and at the same time two hogs mysteriously disappeared. He searched in vain for his porkers and finally concluded that the furious winds had carried them away. A few days ago he was moving the straw stack, and to his astonishment found underneath it his two missing hogs, one alive and the other dead. The live hog was said to have been in a frightful condition when released from its eight months’ imprisonment, but was able to walk and is now doing well.
