After lying in bed Of rust for many
years the largest meteorite in any mu-
scum was finally landed in Rio de ia
metro by Or. orvilie Derby. It is more
than seven feet long, almost Eve feet
in width, and its weight when it fell
was about $1,000 pounds. 1t was first
discovered in 1884, and the following
year an attempt was made to convey
it to the town Of Bahia by means Of a
truck built for the purpose. It took
the men three days to load it, and
eighty oxen dragged it a distance Of
1900 feet to the bed Of a stream near
by, where they had to abandon it.
There it lay for about twenty-five
years, when Mr.. Mornay, an English
man, came upon It.
