Here's a short story:

CHAPTER XIV. 

OVER THE MOUNTAIN TOP. 

Darry was much alarmed, and with good reason. Never before had he faced such a snake, and the reptile looked ready to spring upon him at any instant. 

What to do the boy did not know, yet instinctively he leaped back to the top of the rock. Then the fish gave a jerk which almost took him from his feet. 

"Joe! Will!" he shouted. "Come this way! I'm in a pickle!" 

"What's the matter?" shouted Captain Moore, and soon he and his brother were coming forward as quickly as they could. 

In the meantime Darry was having his hands full, for the big fish was bound to get away. At the bottom of the rock lay the snake, with head raised and mouth wide open. Its eyes shone like diamonds. 

"A snake! Kill it!" shrieked Darry. 

"A snake?" echoed Joe. "Where?" 

"At the bottom of this big rock. Oh, my, he's going to come up!" 

"I see him," put in Captain Moore. 

As he spoke the snake made a leap for the top of the rock. As the reptile went up, Darry went down, and ran along the brook's edge, still with his fishing-pole in his hand. 

Catching up a sharp stone, Captain Moore flung it at the snake, hitting the reptile in the tail. At once the thing whirled around, and now forgetting Darry it turned on its assailant. 

"He's coming for you!" ejaculated Joe. "Run, Will, or you'll be bitten sure!" 

"I'm not running from a snake," answered the young officer, and in a trice he whipped out his pistol. As the snake came on he let drive. His aim was true, and the snake dropped with its head half severed from its body.  (End of story)
