Killing a Turkey in the House


From the Albany Journal.
A young married man in town, who
wanted TO make himself of some use
fui account in domestic affairs, and
who from considerations OF economy
bought a live turkey for the family
Christmas dinner. undertook to make
himself helpful yesterday by chop
ping off the head of the turkey. The
weather was cold, and so, instead of
killing the turkey out In the yard, he
took it into the kitchen, and with
block and Ratchet heroically cut off
it's head there. The whole household
had been called to witness his skill
as an executioner. No sooner was it's
head off than that headless turkey
created such riotous excitement in
that household as will never be for
gotten. He gave chase to every mem
Der of the family, out of the kitchen,
into the dining room and into the sit
ting room and parlor, and onto the,
furniture and against the curtains,
and out into the hall, where, in an
eXhausting last effort to climb the
front stairs, he yielded to the il eyita-
BILE, turned gracefully ever on his
back and died. But there wasn't 8
drop of blood lett in his body. He
had bled copioualy, and literally
painted the house and q good portion
of it's furniture and the carpets and
the curtains and the wall paper ..
genuine turkey red.
