offered 'proof that* the "sank*
story” he brought In was no ordi'
nary "snake story," in the form 6f
two snakes in a bottle. Mr. Hes*
-ter said thnt he had killed six
snakes in his yard In ona aft«»
noon nnd bottled up two more,
chasing numerous others out of hts
yard. The snakes were all of the
kind commonly known aa thf
spreading adder and all were email,
ranging from eight to eighteen
Inches. The spreading udder
rarely grows over twenty Inches in
length. Mr. Hester attributed the|
