Excerpt from Fanciers' Journal and Poultry Exchange, Vol. 1: January 1, 1874The following incident is said to have occurred recently in Knoxville, Tenn. Alady had a false tooth which had become loose, and recently, while out in the yard feeding her chickens, she sneezed very hard, when the tooth fell out and was at once swallowed by one of the chickens. The lady kept her eye on that same chicken, and, as soon as possible, effected a capture, when she felt of the craw until she dis covered a substance she took to be her tooth, and, taking a knife, the craw was opened at that place, the tooth taken out, and again closed with needle and thread, and the chicken released. The chicken is still living and well, though full of resolution never to again to swallow a tooth, while the lady sports a full set of teeth again.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
