A pet snake belonging to 

 Mr. W. A. Harding, of Histon, 

 Cambs., who bought it on 11.11.1909. 

 The snake is probably from Brazil. 

 It has been at least one year in 

 England & since it was received from 

 the dealer, Mr. Harding has kept it 

 in a box in which other snakes had 

 previously been kept, or in which 

 other snakes were kept in companion- 

 ship with the boa. These other snakes 

 were from N. America, Africa & Australia. 

 The tick was only noticed in January, 

 & Harding thinks it could not have been 

 there before because the snake is often 

 handled, & it would have been seen.
