day of last week in the neighborhood of

was necessary to shoot him eight or ten
times before he was finally dispatched. A
letter describing the occurrence says the
snake is certainly the largest one ever
seen in this country, being twenty-nine
and half feet in length by actual meas

was thirty and half inches, and he wa

About ten feet of his tail had a spinoul
ridge like that of an alligator. His heat
was the most formidable part about him
and was truly terrible to behold, eve,
when dead. 1t was fully twenty inche
across, and was armed with the most for

four huge tusks. 1t had hole in it JUS
