NORWOOD, June 4—One of the longest taxi trips ever attempted in this country will start on Monday when Miss Emily Curtis Fisher and a party of five friends will leave the Fisher homestead on Neponset st for a trip to Mexico City.

The taxi service will be furnished by Jack’s Taxi Service of this town, and Fred Schaier of 181 Pleasant st, a driver for the service for the past 11 years, will be at the wheel during the trip of nearly 7000 miles. It is expected that the trip will take about six weeks.
