Article Text: Philadelphia, March 12. We hear from Matfield in Bucks County, that on Shrove Tuesday last one James WORTHINGTON, after having eaten a hearty meal of beef and pork, eat forty one and a half hard boil'd hens eggs, and would have eaten more if some in company had not taken them from him. He eat bread and salt plentifully with them, and said he could have eaten ten more. He was not in the least disordered with his dinner, but eat a very hearty supper about 5 or 6 hours after. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ PA-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
