While out hunting near Surrency one day last week, Mr. E. M. Craven found a large rattlesnake. Having his gun along it was no trouble to send the snake to the "happy hunting ground." The big reptile measured nine feet in length, eighteen inches in circumference, and had eighteen jingling rattles attached to his Majesty's person. This is not a snake story, either.
