stream when the snake discovered their
design and came back, meeting them In
midstream, showing fight by it's up
right position. Russell struck the snake
with an oar and sent it under the
water. 1t came UP more vicious thar
ever.
In their effort to kill the snake the
boys overturned the boat and both
were in the water with the mad snake.
They lived and came up directly oppo-

made and the snake followed Tyrus
and bit him in the thigh. He came up
calling for help.
