A negi-o named Alberrv Wilkins of
Gaffney. S. C.. has on one of his bunds'
arms and chesty the complete outline',
of a sunke. which seems to contradict 1
the physicians’ opinion that there is
no suelt ,a tiling as a birth mark. Wil
kins is a trusted employee of (he Vic
tor Oil" Mill of Gaffney, and any state
ment which he makes to those whir
know him is accepted with confidence. l
According to his statement, about three
months before his birth, a man threw a JH
snake which he thought was dead, upon
the chest of his mother, hut the snake
was still living, the woman being badly
frightened thereby, and that she elapsed
her hands alvoss her chest. When Al
berry was born the murk of the serpent'
was -plainly outlined in his arm and (
chest, and can 'now lie plainly seen.
One strange thing about the case is
that Wilkins seems to be immune to
the postson from the reptiles and that
lie handles them with impunity, going
so far as to infuriate them into striking;
him. but the poison tras no effect in his
system. In the winter when it is cold,
hard scales form on the pictured of the.
snake, .mid. it .is. with .the, yeatent ease,
that Wilkins siinke mutches) on h's.
hand. but. in the summer it •becomes as
soft as the rest of his luAd. Wilkins
is about 27 years of age niullauyone who
doubts the foregoing may - d him at thej
Victor Cotton Mill in Gaffney. (
