Origin OF Del wares Nickname
TBraHdon Busksalg. !

Everybody knows that the natives of Della
ware are called the "Blue Hens Chickens, ("
but not one in a hundred can tell you why
they are so called. The epithet is said to have
its origin in the following:
"One Of Delaware's most gallant fighters in
the war Of the Revolution was Capt. Cald-
well. who was notorious for his fOndness for
cockfghting. He drilled his men admirably,
they being known throughout the country as
'Caldwell's Game cocks This same Caldwell
held to the peculiar theory that no cock was
really game unless its mother was blue hen.
As the months wore away CaldwelPs men be-
came known as the Blue Hens Chickens a
title which only increased their respect for the
old game-eock Captain. The nickname became
famous and after the close of the war was APP
piled Unfortunately to all natives Of the
Diamond State"
