In the Sunda Strait a ship's captain, while ashore for firewood, faced a colossal anaconda stalking him from a cliff edge. He escaped with a ferocious dash down the hill, pursued by a leopard and aided by his crew who fled in panic to the long boat. The crew recovered the ship, while the captain endured months of haunting visions, crediting the serpent with saving his life by drawing the predator away.
A 19th century tale recounts Adnan Hays entering a bull with four legs and hair on into a one mile heats race near Brownsville on the Monongahela. The bull, ridden with a dried ox hide saddle and a tin horn, outruns the horses as spectators roar.

In Washington on April 11 the House debated Kansas statehood and the Wyandotte Constitution.
