ALLIGATORS AND CROCODILES. 



ALLIGATORS. 



The largest alligator I have ever seen in Florida was killed near 

 Enterprise, on the St. John River, and measured fourteen feet within 

 a fraction of an inch. I have killed several alligators over twelve 

 feet in length, and one which measured thirteen feet two inches,

which I shot on the St. John River near the mouth of the Wikiva 

 Creek. Large alligators have of late years become rather scarce, 

 although nearly every year I kill one or more which will exceed 

 eleven feet.
