That 10 Why Ezra Burt Holds Price

Looking Fowl, Though She
4..Ns57s =, Aasa Never Laid Again.

s& MIRA Burt, who lives about mile
cost of the Corners. has hen which
- amount of .money will buy, the New
York World says. It Is scrawny. Ill.
appearing fowl, with bedraggled feath.
ers and . semibalde head. and. what
10 more, it4has laid only one egg in its.
entire two years existence. Still. old
Betsy, as the hen is called. has a
niche in Ezra's heart and gets the
very best grain the farm affords.
The secret of all this is that the
/ one.egg Betsy laid contained on its
shell raised water-line map Of the
spot where old jeremiah Burt, Ezra'S
great-grandfather, buried his gold at
the time Of the revolutionary war, and
with the aid of this map Ezra recov.
cred the treasure. Just how much
this was no one has been able to find
out, but 1t is known that the mortgage
on the farm has been paid of and the
Burt family Is living in comfort.
The Burts gave up hunting for the
secreted wealth 40 years ago, after
they had searched and dug until they
were tired out. They knew that the
paternal Burt sunk his gold some
where in the earth and went OF to
war without telling his family where
he had placed it further than that It
was on the farm. -
Last summer q gypsy came along
selling beads and laces and offered to
60 into trance and solve the treas
ure riddle, provided Ezra bought
dollars worth of her wares. Burt
took up the offer and in her trance
the woman said that some day an old
scrawny hen would lay an egg on
which would be found a map. II this
were followed the treasure would be
found. Ezra thought he was "stung."
but he paid the dollar.
Nothing more happened until q
month ago, when Betsy was found in
the woodbox behind the kitchen stove.
Horrifed at the idea of having hen
In her kitchen Mrs. Burt shooed her
out, and was surprised to find an egg
nesting in the shavings. The egg had
peculiar raised lines on the shell and
Ezra was called. He remembered the
prophecy Of the gypsy and carefully
studied the shell. Sure enough, there
was map, with little star at the
base of an old maple tree in the sugar
orchard.
With q pick and shovel Burt sat
forth and an hour later returned with
. discolored copper soap kettle heavy
with gold. The family kept the secret
until the mortgage was ,paid, when It
became common property. All ct.
forts to get Ezra to tell how much
money he found in the kettle have
tailed. ~. ->:s..... .sas.. s.--
