4 SINGULAR MEDICINE AND Fatal
REsULT.-A singular death occurred
in Tishomingo county, Miss, a few
days ago. Mr.. Pennington, a stout,
healthy farmer, had q slight chill. The
day before he was in excellent health.
Two mornings after, he felt the ap
preach of another chill, and lay down
upon a bed. After lying awhile he
remarked that he had heard it said
that spiders webs were good for the
chills. He rose from the bed, and
gathering from the walls Of the room
a web 10 which were three "syider
balls, as they are called. swallowed
them. Immediately there was heard
within his chest q faint souud, as iltl1
balls had burst. and in ten minutes he
was dead. Very soon his throatlips,
and the whole of his face were great
Iy swollen by the action Of the poison.
Who has not seen hundreds of young
spiders, not as large as a pin-hcad,
swarm from one Of these balls when
broken open? And who but this i'll
lated Mississippian would ever have
thought Of swallowing a spoonful Of
them as q remedy for cbiIls, or for
anything else?
