among the birds & found a cat in the hot bed chasing the little bird we had in there. on seeing Pa, the cat ran & we caught the bird, who was unable to fly out & put it down by the concord grape vine, where he stayed untill supper time, where another cat found him & George & Pete got him away in the nick of time & saved him. I cant find him this, morning, but the birds are quiet & I trust that he is safe. he was a nice big featheredout bird & I hope he will be able to fly up into a tree soon. we never had such a time with the birds, as we have had this year I never want them to build near the house again, too much care. Pa got all stirred up with them trying to rescue the young bird from the cat. he has just come down stairs from taking his bath. & changing his clothes.
