ed, trapped or enSnared lawfully. The
act especially prohibits the killing or
! taking at any time of any partridge,
prairie chicken, grouse, quail. pleas
ant, oriOle, meadOwlark, redbird,
mOckingbird or bluebird, except on
ones own property. 1t is unlawful for
any person or corporation to buy or
sell such birds, except SOngbirdS, and
