22 July 1918 - LIGHTNING KILLS 504 SHEEP IN UTAH'S WASATCH NATIONAL
PARK: Two large bolts of lightning struck and killed 654 head of sheep
on Mill Canyon Peak in American Fork Canyon. According to one historical
account: "Forked lightning had struck twice and split down two sides of
the peak...There was about a seventy-five foot swath in between the dead
sheep and where not a one was injured...The dead sheep all had to be
moved to the opposite side of the canyon so as to be off the 'water
shed.' Men counted them as they were moved, 654 sheep had been killed."

 Ewes up to three or four years old are as tender as any
 lamb if they are well-conditioned, but old rams tend to
 be tough and strongly flavored.

 Grind the lamb or mutton fairly fine. Don't include fat
 or tallow when grinding older mutton. Mix in remaining
 ingredients.

 Make patties or stuff into medium casings.
