  This morning I went to Sunday School & then came back. I let Bijou out this afternoon, & he flew round some, but I was afraid he was sick he acted [[strikethrough]] lost [[/strikethrough]] strangely. I had a great many fears, but they most all subsided when Mrs Hood came up to see mama, & I told her what I thought about him, & she said that he had only stuffed himself, & that you could tell that a [[insertion]] canary [[/insertion]] bird was sick, if he did not eat anything, but he had eaten a great deal.
