Large rattlesnake killed near city water line
Engineer Rogers supervising improvements to the city water system reported a large rattlesnake killed in the mountains along the new pipe line. The skin measured three and a half feet with eight rattle buttons. The season is described as a good rattlesnake year with many specimens killed. A large table presented to the mayor was caught on the pipe line but disappeared during the night, prompting a theory that a turtleside climbed a tree and remains hidden in foliage.
