Haun and some of his chums got the rattler when they were pickin berries in the marsh and carrie it on a forked stick to the home of One of the Lads. From what can be gathered from the boys, Haun was trying to ‘catch the snake by the tail and to break its neck by snapping it like .a whip. He was rushed to the of- fice of Dr. Black in Hum-berstone, where he was treated for the wound. Dr. Black stated that Haun was very fortunate and would soon recover although the hand is badly swollen.â€"0rangeville Banner. Bitten By Snake Inspector H311!
