Salisbury Post
Mrs. N.E. Hutchison was still confined to her bed at her residence at 602 West Franklin Street today as the result of a wound inflicted Monday morning when a rooster attacked her as she entered the chicken lot to feed the fowls. Her physician administered tetanus antitoxin late yesterday in the hope of preventing lockjaw.
Mrs. Hutchison had no sooner entered the chicken lot than the rooster struck at her, his spur hitting her right ankle. It began swelling at once and the pain was so great that she was forced to her bed.
Fearing that the poison would cause lockjaw, the attending physician administered the tetanus antitoxin.
Mr. Hutchison, who is with the R.W. Norman Furniture Company, said today that Mrs. Hutchison was suffering severe pain, but he and the physician were hopeful that her condition would improve in a few days.
