dc.description.abstract This newsletter primarily focuses on various historical accounts of snake encounters, particularly with rattlesnakes, across Georgia and Florida. It details numerous incidents such as individuals killing large snakes, snakes appearing in homes, and the tragic death of a woman from a rattlesnake bite. The document draws from old newspaper clippings to illustrate the prevalence of these dangerous interactions and the resilience of people facing them. Additionally, the newsletter includes a significant, unrelated report concerning Preacher William Lipham being held on a murder charge for allegedly poisoning a man, outlining the legal proceedings and evidence related to the case. It concludes by reflecting on the value of preserving these historical "snake stories" for genealogical and community understanding. en_US
