This letter was the first communication that Hinrich Viebrock of Rathdrum, Idaho, USA received from his family explaining a lightning strike which hit his family's Gaststätte (restaurant or public house) resulting in the death of two men, including Hinrich's younger brother, Valerius, and a man named Warnken. The family home was destroyed by fire and Hinrich's father, Thees Viebrock suffered injuries which caused him to be bedridden for several weeks.
