Abundant in the Southern States. An extremely vicioin serpent The Water Snakes of the opening. My friends of many rambles and snake hunts,Messrs. Adam Dove and Morris Pearsall, relate amusing inci-dents attending the capture of these reptiles in the lakes of Sul-livan County, New York. On one occasion, while fishing forpike, they approached a great mass of derelict timber and onit several large water snakes were sunning. Although the snakeswere some twenty feet from where the bow of their boat lightlytouched a fallen tree trunk, the vibration was enough to sendthe reptiles gliding into the water, where they dived at three short pieces of fish line, Mr. Dove tied each to branchesnear the water line, and on the end of each cord securely fasteneda small perch, which was dropped into the water, where it hungin plain view. The boat was then rowed some distance awayand fishing resumed.
