Mr.. W. I. Mcfarland, Mayor Of this
city, reports a fierce encounter be-
tween chicken, frying size, and a
snake. On last Saturday he noticed a
chicken making heroic effort to pass
through this world, and found that
snake about foot long had seized it
near its head, and was hanging OF.
The chicken run until it could not fur-
Their go, and at this juncture the fowl
began pecking the tail end of the snake
and soon had it all swallowed except
about two inches, and the snake was
still clinging to the chickens feathers
near its head. This condition lasted
for few minutes, the chicken trying
to SWALLOW, and snake trying to get
out. Finally the reptile let loose, and
was soon in the craw of the chicken.
