Extracted from the book entitled St. Lucia: Historical, Statistical and descriptive by Henry H. Breen, ESQ. 1844

Saint Lucia is infested by countless reptiles and insects. Of the most dangerous is the yellow serpent-a genus peculiar tot his island and Martinique. It measures between six and eight feet in length and its bite is generally fatal. There are numerous other serpents of a smaller species and much less noxious. They all multiply amazingly- the female bringing forth from thirty to forty young ones at a birth-and every part of the island is more or less exposed to their fearful influence. In most cases, however, the bite, if immediately attended to, may be effectually cured; the planters and many of the Negroes are very skilful in the application of various specifics. The serpent subsists on birds, insects and poultry. Its greatest enemy is the cribo or black snake, an animal having the shape and appearance of the serpent but without its noxious power. (The Cribo possesses some of the characteristics of the Boa Constrictor of which there is a remarkable species in St. Lucia called the “Tete-chien.”) A careless observer would be liable to mistake the one for the other. In every encounter the Cribo is the aggressor and general comes off victorious. It counteracts the mischievous effect of the bite of the serpent by rolling itself on the leaves of a plant called Pied-poule (to be found in every part of the island) and returns tot he attack with renovated strength. In this way the serpent is ultimately overpowered and then the Cribo gorges the carcase, commencing with the head. When (as is frequently the case) the body of the serpent is longer and larger than that of the snake , the latter retaining possession of its prey, feeds upon it for several days, gradually sucking in such portions of the carcase as may be sufficient to satisfy the wants of the moment. The Cribo is sometimes found with the lower part of the serpent protruding between its jaws in this disgusting position.

Formerly the different public offices were scattered through the town, each functionary being permitted to keep his office at this private residence. This abuse was reformed by Sir Dudley Hill in 1835, since which period the officers of Government have been established under one roof in Mr. Muter’s extensive premises in Mongiraud–street. The principal building is 106 feet long by 39 wide and consists of two stories and a garret. The ground floor is appropriated to the offices of Colonial Treasurer, Attorney–General, Solicitor-General, Registrar of the Courts and Provost Marshal; and the upper story is occupied by the Court House, the Council Chamber and the Secretary’s Office.
