A Georgia Snake story.

ATLANTA, GA, May Al. ID. Wash
burn, who lives ten miles north of Quit
man, was passing around the back of his
plantation, accompanied by two dogs,
one a very large bulldog, the other a
small one The small dog was suddenly
attacked by monster rattlesnake, the
snake biting him and holding him to the
ground with its mouth. The larger dog
seeing the trouble went bravely 10 the
rescue The snake Immediately released
the small dog and sprang for the larger
one, biting him in the neck. Mr. Wash
burn had, in the meanwhile, got hold of q
fence rail and started for the scene of bat
tie. On seeing Mr. Washburn the snake
left the dogs and sprang for him. The
old gentleman backed few steps, aud,
gathering his energies, struck at his
snakeship with the rail The rail took
effect on the snakes head, and stunned
him. Then Mr. Washburn got in his work,
and in few minutes killed the reptile.
The snake was as large as a mans thigh
and feet long He was an old settler.
Strange TO say, the small dog recovered,
but the large bulldog died the next day.
