stranqe Bird FIahts Farmer.

Elias Peabody, who lives in
the northern part of Madison
County had terrible tussle the
other night with either a strange
visitor from the moon or James
Whilcom Riley's Crack o.
Doom" bird which he turned
loose in Madison County in 1877,
when be was editor Of the And
erson Democrat. Peabody was
aroused from his dreams by
something falling heavily upon
his roof. The thump was fol-
lowed by scurrying footsteps.
He jumped out of bed and
grabbed his gun. In the moon
light he saw the strangest kind
of thing. He lowered his gun
and went out to meet it. Though
he cried "Shoo," as loud as he
could, the thing came straight at
him, and when it came into close
range, Peabody grabbed it "a
round the neck. The visitor
demonstrated in a second to Pea
body's mind that it was not a
mem Der of the goose family, for
according to the honest farmer,
it threw a few kinks out of its
neck and shot out both of it's long
legs landing on Peabody's breast
with such a force as to floor him.
Then it stood guard over him
and his fowling piece, blinking
at him with great, bright, weird
eyes.
Peabody says he grabbed it "a
gain and caught it about the legs
but it set it's wings in motion and
laid him out again. He was
game however, and at last sue
ceeded in getting it in corn crib,
where he locked it up untilmorn-
ing.
When Peabody inspected the
bird in daylight, its legs were
large and short, and it's feet
we're not webbed. Ithad a yel-
low beak and large white eyes,
while its feathers we're snow
white and very coarse. when
he peeked through crack, the
bird was walking up and dow n
the floor, turning his
heal in every direction. He
opened the door, and let it go out
but it showed no sign of flying
away. 1t walked into a pool of
water, but hustled out in sur
prise as if water was new thing
to it. 1t would bump against the
side of the barn and into the
fence, yet it is not blind.
