    Child Snake Bitten, Roy Webb 1937

    / No Comments

    Child Snake Bitten
    What happily turned out to be a harmless reptile, gave an awful fright to the family of the granddaughter of Mr. and Mrs. Dan Couch, near Roy Webb School Monday morning.
    Mr. and Mrs. Harry Dempsey were passing when they heard the frightened screams of the family. They put the child in their car and rushed her to the doctor in Jacksonville, and all were greatly relieved when the doctor pronounced the bite as being from a non-poisonus snake.
