SUBJECT FOR STUDY.
Horry Herald. ,
In a recent issue of this paper
there appeared a news item telling
nf thft talrine- nf three live s nakes
from a dog in Galivant's Ferry township.
This dog had been snake bitten
several times, and by a rattle
snake within the last two years before
he was killed t0 relieve the
animal from his misery. It has often
been told that if a snake bit a dog,
he would develop a parasite resembling
the snake; but there were few
found to believe such a story. This
comes from a reliable source and
canot be doubted. The Herald me ntions
it because it furnishes something
for careful thought and study
and the study of it might lead to
something of great value to the human
race.
