Show A story was told by Lord Claud Hamilton at a dinner of the Fly Fishers' Club. An Irishman had caught a big pike. Noting a lump in its stomach, he cut it open. "As I cut it open there was a mighty rush and a flapping of wings," said he, "and away flew a wild duck; and, begorra, when I looked Inside, there was a nest with four eggs, and she had been afther sitting on that nest." The man who invented the self-playlng piano has committed suicide. It is probable that 'the coroner did hot deem an inquest necessary. |
