Text Appearing Before Image:
continued the crow, you know wehave not seen Danger,the big white owl, forseveral days. We used to see hirn oftenenough, and always when we did not want to,but of late I think no one has seen him. Well,night before last I was awakened from a soundsleep by hearing him hoot. There is no mis-taking his hoot, for no other owl makes suchhideous noises. I kept very still and listened, and could notlocate the sound for a long time, but finally Idecided it came from up towards the farm-house. I thought it very strange, but went tosleep and dreamed upon it. M The next morning I saw all of the peopleat the farmhouse go off down the road, andwhen they were out of sight I flew up andlooked about. For a long time I could dis-cover nothing out of the ordinary, but pres-ently I saw a cage swinging in the big elm, andinside, winking and blinking with his two yel-low eyes, was Danger, the great white owl, theterror of the woods.

Text Appearing After Image:
■JIMUtSdfflMD HE CLUTCHED THE BARS FIERCELY WITH HIS CLAWS. THE LAST MEETING. 151 I was sitting, but, of course, Danger did notsee me, as it was broad daylight. w After watching him for a while I gave aderisive caw. Who, who, asked Danger,looking up, but he could not see me, for thesun was very bright. ? Who, who, he re-peated, winking harder than ever, and tryingto get a glimpse of me with his big yelloweyes. fIt is your friend Mmrod, I said, goingclose to the cage. f What a fine house you havehere ; when did you move in ? f Friend Nimrod, he screeched, coming upto the bars and clutching them fiercely withhis claws. You are no friend of mine. Iwould like to wring your silly neck, but it wouldnot be worth my while ; you are a noisy fool,but not worth killing. Then he went to sleepon his perch and I could not get another wordout of him, so finally flew away and left him inhis gilded cage. It is a good place for him,and I trust that he has done the last of histhieving in these woods.
