A Large Covey,


Two old hunters were swapping
yarns and had got to quail.

when quail We're so thick that you
could get eight or ten at shot with a
rifle
The other one sighed.
What's the matter?" said the first.
II was thinking of my quail hunts. I
had fine black horse that rode ev-
erywhere, and one day out hunting
quail l saw big covey on low
branch of tree. threw the bride
rein over the end of the limb and took
shot
Several birds fell and the rest flew
away.

on that limb that when they flew of it

Hunt-It seems strange to me to hear
you criticise your wife's reflections as
harangues, in view Of the fact that in
the earlier days Of your married life
you spoke of your wife's voice as the
very soul of music.
