F.C. Efird of Oakboro suffered the misfortune to be bitten by a poisonous spider Sunday afternoon about 1 o’clock, which caused him excruciating pain and suffering until far into the night. He is not fully recovered yet, but all imminent danger has passed.
Just how the spider came to bite Mr. Efird is not known, but immediately after the bite he was overcome with sickness. His physician was summoned, but nothing seemed to ease or relieve him until late in the night.
The kind of spider was not learned but evidently was one of a very poisonous species.
