Right you are, see: Grogan,W. L., Jr. 1973. Effects of accidental envenomation from the saliva of the Eastern hognose snake, Heterodon platirhinos. Herpetologica 30(3): 248–50.
The "victim" in this report was me, at the age of 16. Anne Arundel County. In my mind's eye, it was a larger snake, perhaps 28", and a nice red pattern...
Where did you find this?
You may also want to ask boss281. Seems he's been a victim of this snake. He has personal knowledge.
