Read these lines from The Way to Rainy Mountain by N. Scott Momaday:
In the autumn of 1874, the Kiowas were driven southward
towards the Staked Plains. Columns of troops were converging
upon them from all sides, and they were bone-weary and afraid.
They camped on Elk Creek, and the next day it began to rain. It
rained hard all that day, and the Kiowas waited on horseback for
the weather to clear. Then, as evening came on, the earth was
suddenly crawling with spiders, great black tarantulas, swarming
on the flood.

OB. It shows how many spiders came out in the evening.

D. It indicates the vear in which the confrontation happened.
