The SNAKE Bile

Detroit Free Pres.
The report from the township Of Sand
wich West that an attempt had been
made 20 counteract the effect Of the
poison in boys leg produced by the
bite of q rattlesnake by a charm
caused some inquiries to be made, and
it was ascertained that snake poison
charmers have been known In Essex
county for the past hundred years.
Tradition says that this Power was re-
oeived from the Indians, who roamed
through the forests on both sides Of the
Dstriot River years before the white
man made bis appearance.
Henry Meloche, who conducts fish
store In Windsor, and who is nearly
co years old, said yesterday that
when he was a small boy he witnessed
the charm tried on his father, and
claims that, without any medicine or
medical aid, his parent recovered
after the charm had been worked. He
saidi
My father was bitten in the field
at o'clock in the morning and a mes
senger was at once dispatched to Belle
River for Jacques Latonier, who was
famous as a suaka-Ioison charmer. He
came TO our home as fast as his horse
would carry him, and when be arrived
he found tne limb greatly swoolen and
a string, which had been tied around
the leg to prevent the poison from
reaching the BODY was buried in the
flesh.
"Laioni6r, after making an ex-
animation OK the wound, said il was a
snake bite, and he produced a piece
Of string from a deerskin and proceed
ed to tie il around the leg. As he tied
the first knot he muttered a single
word and before be finished the work
he had placed seven knots in the string
and had muttered as many words.
