Whether they are man-eaters or not, may be a question, but we preferred to give ourselves the benefit of the doubt. On our return to Loud's we found Doctor White very busy skinning his birds. "What is this, doctor? a jay? It looks rather different from our blue jay." "Yes: this is the Florida jay: it has no crest, you perceive.
Bixby. "Somethin' terrible pathetic was goin' on on the stage," resumed Mr. Hartington, "the folks didn't see him at first, they was all cryin' and everythin' was still, but Airley wahn't affected. As quick as he got his breath he hollered right out loud's he could: 'The Truro Bill's up in the House, boys.
A hunting-party was organized to go the next day to Turnbull's Swamp, which lies a few miles west of Loud's, and contains deer, turkeys and ducks, with bears and panthers for those who desire that kind of game.
Leastways, Tommy Loud's young'n turned up missin' the day he skipped, an' we ain't seen nothin' of 'er since." "Is this she?" I asked, leading him to the cot. Hardly looking at the child, he raised her in his arms and kissed her. "God be praised, sir," he said with a show of feeling. "We 'ave got her back.

"Yes, there is a very good one at New Smyrna, about three miles up the river: Mr. Loud keeps it." "We think of stopping here two or three days: where would be the best place to anchor the yachts?"

He took three fox-hounds, and Morris brought his deer-hounds ashore. They took with them a mule and cart, with a tent and blankets, intending to stay in the swamp over night.
"Well, it was a pretty young one," said the first girl. "Looks to me as if Eva Loud's skirt was comin' off," said the pretty girl. She pressed close to Jim Tenny with a familiar air of proprietorship as she spoke, but the young man did not seem to heed her. He was looking over his bench at the figure on the street below, and his heavy black eyebrows were scowling, and his mouth set.

She works mostly in oils, but has been successful in portraits in pastel; two admirable examples were exhibited in Boston recently, and were favorably noticed for their color and "temperance in the use of high relief."
