One morning one of the two pet pi-
geons belonging to my father was found
upon the highroad dead. its body bearing
marks of injury, but from what cause we
never knew, We carried the dead body
home and buried it in sunny and quiet
spot in the garden. For three days the
surviving pigeon with untiring energy
searched the country far and near for its
mate, but in vain. 1t refused to touch
food, and even the influence which my
father usually exercised over it was gone
On the third day we found it dead in the
dovecot. its little heart broken with grief
by the loss of its lifelong companion.
We buried it beside its mate.-Cor. Lon
