hedge, shich were approaching In n
Semiclftie, apparently to surround lt.
Just then a warning cry was heard
from behind, uttered presumably by
the parent tTSaeol, and the young ones
disappeared In the hedge. The bird
still remained powerless anoVliumova

forth a weak, frightened sound, as
though still under the Influence of the
terror which had arrested Its faculties.
