In very bad weather, and after long-continued gales, this bird seems to be occasionally driven ashore, either owing to starvation or from getting caught in the crest of a wave when trying to hover close over it, after the manner of a Shearwater, as this is the second I have picked up under nearly the same circumstances, the first being in November, 1866, when I found one not quite dead on the shore near Dawlish, in South Devon.

She had not quite approved of the manner in which Ontario had disclosed his love, though there had been something of the eloquence of passion even in that; and now she was hardly satisfied with Ralph Newton.
