My dad, Ernest S Taylor( d.1979,)had a hobby of breaking codes for treasure hunters,He would listen and enjoyed the stories and legends on the island where I was bornin NE Florida. Here's one ol' Mr. Jones told.
"The Snake Cried" Johnny was behind that morning as he grabbed his fishing gear, a quart of moonshine, and hauled buggy for Crandel. When he got there, he had everything but the bait. He looked around for something to use when he saw a small snake with a frog in its mouth. Johnny reached down and snatched it up and was fastening it on his hook when he noticed the snake was crying....brokenhearted, tears running down its face. Johnny reached for his bottle and poured a few drops on the snakes nose. The little snake licked his lips a couple of times, smacked his mouth and took off. Johnny caught a nice bass with the frog then looked around and there was the snake with another frog. Johnny gently took the frog and watched as the snake raised its head and opened his mouth wide. Both were pretty well loaded when the sun went down. Comments about this story:
