One very common way in which words have changed their meanings is through the name of one thing being given to another which resembles it. The word pen comes from the Latin penna, "a feather;" and as in olden days the ordinary pens were "quills" of birds, the name was very good.

I went on board the Maine to see the American doctors one of them said he had met me on Walnut Street, when he had nearly run me down with his ambulance from the Penna Hospital.
