HUGGED BY a SNAKE-Mrs. S;etsop and
daughter, Of Union towDfhip, Pa, were
"berrying" ID the vicinity CT Harbor Bridge,
when they had lively encounter with a
stake. Mrs. Stetson was making her way
through thicket of small trees and bushes,
her daughter following at a distance of ff-
,ten or twenty yards. Suddenly a long
snake of gre enish- h-brown color swung from
u tres at Mre, S;elson's eide, and quick as a
fash hegan coiiipg itself around her neck
and shoulders Almost paralyzed with
fright, the woman stood rooted to the
ground for almost minute. Then recover.
inp her senses she screamed loudly for help.
Miss Stetson rushed forward to ascertain the
cause of the outcry. She was horriied upon
reaching the spot to see her mother 10 the
coils OF the reptile. The poor woman had
succeeded 10 getting her hands around Its
shiny body about six inches from the head.
Her hold was q firm one, but it required all
her strength to keep the snake from getting
it's head close enough to do injury with it's
fangs, which it kept thrustlng at her face.
All this lime it kept tightening is grip
around her neck and soon her face began to
assume purplish hue, while her tongue,
swollen to twice its natural size, hung from
her mouth, and her eyes bulged almost from
their sockets Miss Stetson is cool and
nervy young lady, and graspiDg stick she
struck the snake a telling blow on the
head. This caused it to loosen It's coil, but
not before the woman had tainted. Her
daughter then attempted to pull the ser.
pent away, but found her mothers fingers
deeply mbedded In its fl ssh, and all efforts
to get them loose failed. The young woman
then proceeded to carry and to drag by
turns her now unconscious parent to q
stream Of water about fifty yards from the
place A liberal application of the cool
liquid brought Mrs. Stetson back to con.
sciousness. She still grasped the snake in
her hand. and it required no small effort, &C.
companisd by pain, for her to straighten her
fingers sufficiently to allow the snake to
drop from her grasp She was then assisted
to farm house half mile distant, where
she was kindly cared for, after which che
,csa conveyed to her home In carriage.
rno shock was too much for her, and Mrs.
Stetson is now lying at her home in oriti.
cal condition.
