A WoOd-Duck's Tomb.

At the farm of G. W. Hutchins, seven
miles from Marysvillc. bee tree was
found near the cast bank of Feather
river. which was cut to obtain the
honey. After the tree was cut down
to the ground IN investigation
was instituted and the honey
located in hollow halfway be
tween where it was cut and the top.
On cutting open the body Of the tree
they secured about eighty pounds Of
honey, eleven duck eggs and a dead
duck. 1t appears that q wood-duck had
formed cavity through hole that
was originally large enough to admit
her body. After laying eleven eggs
she had commenced setting to hatch
them and while doing SO the bees had
filled the hole with comb, SO that she
could not get out and she died on the
nest.-Red Bluff Call Democrat.
