  1. (continued from previous page)
    mill, so one day she came home after a great feed of saw dust, and she laid twenty four eggs. When she had all them laid my mother put her hatching them and what do you think she brought out but a sofa, twelve drawers, and a set of mahogony drawers. Now haven't we some good hens in Ireland too. The English man said that was the best hen he ever heard tell of - because it wasn't chickens would come out of her eggs at all.
