The numl>er of the car was noted and some tiiue thereafter it w»» returned here and the young deserted their nest at the home station. Whether the C. P. II. authorities sent Ihe car back just to accommodate Mr<. Hob'u, or whether in the whirligig of railway tritHo it just happened, we do not know. Thi' facts are as slated and cm be .swoin to by the employees at Flesherton Btation.
