A MYSTERIOUS SPIDER
the SPECTATOR.] [To the Editor of th
. .
SIR,—I should be grateful if any of your readers could kindly explain to me the mysterious behaviour of a spider in my kitchen. About eight days ago, I found hanging in the middle of the room 4i feet from the ceiling and suspended by an invisible thread, a Palm Sunday cross 3 inches by 11 inches.
There was a spider somewhere on the ceiling but not over the cross. The maids declare they never possessed the cross, and as the kitchen is turned out once a week and cleaned every day; how did- it come there ? Also how did the spider drag it to the ceiling and across the ceiling before letting it down ? It still hangs where- we found it on October 10th and we shall leave it as it is, till it comes down of itself.7.
