Still Sticking to the Hen Story.-The
Baltimore San SAYS 1.-THE hen with record of
a 14-mile ride on load of straw while sitting
on rs eggs. as reported at the time in the Sun,
is dead. This pesevering fowl had been owned
since last June by Messrs. J. 7. Norris q Son.
of Govanstown and had shown strong and
persistent sense of duty. She had laid during
the entire winter when other hens suspended
operations, enabling spectators to mark Up
the price of eggs to AZ cents per dozen at retail
She remained faithful and jealous to the last,
being found dead in her nest. The hen was
originally the property of Mrs. Walter 0.
Ensor, of Strawberry Hill Farm, near Jockeys
Vile Mr. Ensor had freighted his wagon
with baled straw about three weeks before he
removed it from his farm and started to denver
the load to ]. I. Norris q Son. MI. Ensor,
without discovering that the hen bad made
preparations to hatch out brood of chickens
in the wagon, left home about O'Clock one
morning. The distance to GOvanstown was
IA miles and the road rough. The wagon had
no springs and swayed from side to side as the
wheels passed over slanting places and gullles.
The hen bore the discomforts OF the trip Win
silent patience, and her presence was not dis,
covered until Mr. Ensor was about to unload
the wagon. Mr.. Norris bought the hen and
her 25 eggs and placed them in more secure
nest. A majority of the eggs were Matched"
The story of the hen beats the Suns COW
story by large majority. And, strange to
say, both the originals in the cow story-which
was most remarkable one in some partic-
ulars-and the hen story came from the same
neighborhood.
