Arizona weekly enterprise., 1890-06-07
An Awful Place.

Down at Tombstone Arizona. on a recent Sunday. the services at one of the churches, were of the most liveliest character imaginable. A pinion snake by some claimed to be the devil in disguise-entered the sanctuary, no doubt to see what persons he owned were there. His presence was not noticed fo- time, but when he was dis covered, the sermon stopped. The discovery was made by . corpulent sister who imagined something was wrong with one of the elastic and cot ton ligatures that surrounded her hose. She watched the preacher and at the same time reached down below the seat to fix the rubber band. Her hand fell foul of the article and she grasped something that was cool and clammy, she pulled it forth and a writhing wriggling red snake greeted her eye. She gave one yell and faint ed. The snake immediately tried to escape and ran up the inside of dea- cons pants leg. He yelled and tore off the garment, thus letting the rep tile loose in the congregation which had become wild with excitement by this time and paid no heed to the minister's words of '1et not your spirits be troubled" but rushed fra nti- cally from doors and windows in a mad effort to escape. A gambler who was present, deliberately walked up the isle to the place where the choir had been sitting, and with cane killed the snake and hoisted him out of a window.
 Quiet was finally restored, but all interest in the discourse was lost. The visit of the serpent has proven bene hcial to the community, however, as large number of this church congre' gation have reformed. The saloons have became alarmed in consequence and a war on snakes has been inaug urated. A premium is offered fol them and it is thought that withir less than a week no snake will be Jeff alive within radius of 15 miles O Tombstone-Albuquerque Democrat.
