    The Gadsden Flag Snake Prior to its appearance on the Gadsden Flag, the snake has been used in Benjamin Franklin’s works, such as the famous political cartoon “Join, or Die” and his anonymous letter to the Pennsylvania Journal. Additionally, the snake was used as a symbol of courage, unity, and independence throughout the colonies. “She never begins an attack, nor, when once engaged, ever surrenders: she is therefore an emblem of magnanimity and true courage, … she never wounds ‘till she has generously given notice, even to her enemy, and cautioned him against the danger of treading on her.” The American Guesser, now believed to be Benjamin Franklin, wrote this about the rattlesnake and the “magnanimity and true courage” that is represents.

    In the tall tales "The Devil and Daniel Webster" by Stephen Vincent Benet and "The Devil and Tom Walker" by Washington Irvine the authors use the devil as an archetype but both use it in different ways.
