Prince and King Snake Hunt Rattlers in Odd Partnership

A vivid tale from August 1898 recalls Prince the dog and the king snake forming a wary alliance to hunt rattlers near Ferguson’s place. They aided each other, breaking in blue racers to pull a wagon, amusing children and surviving the winter in close quarters. Also noted: a tin Paradise Lost case found in the Penobscot river and a gold-pocket discovery near Kalispell, Montana.
