One of behring's Retired Sea Captains-A
Thrilling story--A Land Yarn by sea
Captain.
This was certainly sporting adven-
ture, and it happened to Capt. Elbridge
Matthews of Deering, some IL or Is years
ago, before he retired from the sea. He
had sailed up the Pamunky river in
Virginia, and had gone on a hunting
trip in small boat. He landed and
tramped up into the. country and dis
charged his gun until he had but one
cartridge left. Just about then he saw
a snake lying asleep in the sun close to
arm, and about six feet long. Captain
Matthews knew what it was. He bad
seen many hoop snakes" in Virginia
before. He didn't stop to think that
it was slast cartridge, but raised his
gun and fired. The whole charge en-
tered the log just over the snake, and
then there was trouble. The hoop
snake is not myth. At least Capt.
Matthews declares that it is not. He has
seen many of them and this one was
unusually large He describes it as fol-
lows: The hoop snake is aggressive. Its
methods in attack are to slide along the
ground like any snake. for 90 or 80 feet
and after thus acquiring speed it rears
its head and tail until horny hook on
the end of the latter is firmly held in the
snakes mouth and the rolling process
begins. The snake must roll straight
and must straighten out and glide when
any obstacle, such as log, or fence. is
encountered. The rolling process is not
only for the sake of swift progress, but in
that way the weapon used. When the
rolling snake reaches its prey 1t unwinds
and drives the horny hook on the end OF
the tail with great force and accuracy
into whatever is within reach. Capt.
Matthews has seen one of these snakes in
its rage drive the tail into the bark of a
tree with suc1 force as to make the
snake prisoner for short time. Poison
is elected from this terrible weapon in
the tail.
This particular snake, after the charge
of shot passed over it woke up and took
in the situation at a glance. 1t was roll
ing after Captain Matthews in less time
than it takes to tell of it. Luckily there
was fence near and the captain reached
it first. Then began series of lodging
back and forth over the fence. The snake
WAS at a disadvantage of course, because
it had to wind up, SO to speak, and un-
wind every time. After the captain had
| jumped the fence several times he took
the opportunity when the snake was
| farther away than before, to make 9
break for the river, and his boat about
quarter of a mile distant acrosssa field.
He got a good start and ran for.his life
| He saw that the snake was gaining anG
he threw away his gun. 1t is probably
there now. He ran as he had never ran be
fore, and when he jumped into the boa
and pushed off, the rolling snake wal
not over 20 feet away.
