Snakes serve role in corn cribs and barns Click on headline for item and Kay Haupt photo By Ed Waggener Black snakes and rat snakes at one time were protected for their pest control work in barns. Maybe more so years ago than now. Geniece Marcum remembers a former Metcalfe Countian who made a practice of driving the roads in warm weather looking for snakes to catch. He'd then take them to his yard and release them, and let them do the work they were intended to do. His name was Charles Gallagher, who worked as a supervisor at the Metcalfe County Park for a season and later worked at the bank, but has since removed from the Edmonton area and Mrs. Marcum has lost track of him, but remembers well his love of wildlife.
