It had been a story about a boy who was walking and came along a blacksnake and had befriended him by taking him home and keeping him in the grain bin. At first his father was not in favor of keeping Old Ben, the snake, but after he had realized how much better the snake had been killing the mice than their many other cats he felt it was alright to keep him. Then for many months Blackie disappeared and no one knew wear to find him at so they had just waited, and after many seasons coming and going he had returned in early April and he looked like a long, straggly, flabby, and weak snake. After making a mistake of hiding in the horse’s feed bucket, he had almost been trampled to death but had understood to not go in there anymore but he had made one last fatal mistake. Going into the hog pen. That was where they had seen the last trace of Old Ben, his long skinny track in the smooth sand, leading right up…
