"Well," said the crow, "let me whisper to you; come a little nearer." He hopped towards Cloctaw. Cloctaw hopped the other way. The crow hopped towards him again, till Cloctaw came to the end of the branch, and could go no farther without flying, which would look odd under the circumstances.

Of course this little conversation is quite private?" "Perfectly private," said Cloctaw; and they parted. The crow had an appointment, and Cloctaw flew direct to the steeple. His nest was in the highest niche, just behind the image of St.

"For my part," said Cloctaw, the old jackdaw, taking his seat on a branch of horse-chestnut, "I think it is very disrespectful of the weasel." "True," said the wood-pigeon. "True-whoo," as he settled on the ash. "Quite true-oo," repeated the dove, perching in the hawthorn. "Send for the weasel, then," said a missel-thrush, also perching in the hawthorn. "Why all this delay? I am for action.

So soon as they had gone the assembly proceeded to appoint a Commission to negotiate the treaty of peace. It consisted of the woodpecker, the thrush, and Cloctaw: the stoat muttered a good deal, for having been almost the only adherent of the fox in his former lowly condition, he expected profitable employment now his friend had obtained such dignity.

He replied that he would shoot off his cannon-stick with the greatest pleasure, if they would show him in which direction they expected Choo Hoo to come. So the hare, the squirrel, and Cloctaw, with all the crowd following behind, took him to a gap in the hedge round the copse on the western side, and pointed out to him the way the enemy would come.

"Experience!" cried the jay, in high disdain, "what is he talking of? Poor Cloctaw has gone past his prime; however, we must make allowance for his infirmities. You want some one with a decided opinion like myself, ladies and gentlemen!" "If I might speak," began one of the alien wood-pigeons, but they shouted him down.

"Yes; something must be done," said Cloctaw. "Something must be done," said Ki Ki. "I think, think so," said Tchink. "I, too," said the dove. "Quite true," said the wood-pigeon. "Something must be done," said the stoat. "Let us tell Kapchack what we think," said the mouse, getting bold, as he was not eaten. "A good idea," said the crow; "a very good idea. We will send the mouse with a message."

"Wretch! horrid wretch!" screamed the jay, at the mention of the kissing, in a paroxysm of jealousy. "Pecking is too good for him!" "Send the jackdaw or the crow," said Ki Ki. "No, no," said Kauc and Cloctaw together. "Try the wood-pigeon." "I go? whoo," said the pigeon. "Impossible. Kapchack told me to my face the other day that he more than half suspected me of plotting to go over to Choo Hoo.
