From the Patriot (Harrisburg, Pennsylvania), dated August 22, 1892:
Rattlers Kill Two Women
Awful Encounter With the Deadly Reptiles on Huckleberry Mountain
By Exclusive Wires to The Patriot
Coudersport, Aug. 21 - The details of a horrible encounter with rattlesnakes, in which two women were killed by the venomous reptiles, has been brought here by a commercial traveler from Gold, a village of Potter county. Several days ago Mrs. Jacob Nevins, Mrs. Sara Harmon and three or four other women and their husbands went up on the mountains to pick huckleberries. Mrs. Harmon sat down to pluck the fruit by the side of a rock. A large rattler, unseen by her, which lay on the rock, struck the woman on the jugular vein, causing a considerable rupture. She screamed, but bled to death in half an hour.
While assisting Mrs. Harmon, Mrs. Nevins was bitten twice on the leg and once on the hand by another rattlesnake and died five hours afterward. The men in the party came to the rescue from nearby, gave the women whisky, but to no purpose. They then killed seven huge rattlesnakes within a few yards of where the fated women were bitten and the whole party left the mountain in terror.
