THOMASVIILE, Ga, Feb. 90
Mrs. John f. Archbold, daughter-in-
law of John ID. Archbold. head of the
Standard OIL company, who was bit
ten by large rattlesnake while hunt
ing on the Archbeld estates near here,
is in no danger today.
Mrs. Archbold. who was in short
skirts and wearing heavy leather
hunting boots, almost stepped ON the
snake, which struck before size coulL
draw back. The fangs penetrated
the boot just above the left ankle.
Mrs. Archbold did not lose her
presence Of mind. When the snake
continued to show fight she raised
her rifle to her shoulder and shot the
rattler and then she called to her
companions, who assisted her to the
Archbold home and summoned physi-
clans.
The limb was considerably swollen
and Mrs. Archbold was in pain when
the physicians arrived. but they soon
gave relief. Mrs. Archboli had the
rattler brought to her home. She
will have the skin stuffed.
