1t is nothing but a large sturgeon,
about 8 feet long, hundreds of which
are now being caught in Delaware Bay.
1t has been stuffed and the head dress
ed. The blunt thick nose has been
split so as make it appear like a mouth.
A curved stick has been driven in the
top of the nose to make a horn similar
to that on a rhinoceros, and large glass
eyes have been placed in the head. Sew,
