This pet hawk rendered another good service, byguarding the chickens, although it was probably unin-tentional on his part, putting to flight all crows orhawks that came about the poultry yard. One day,while endeavoring to drive away a large hawk, afierce fight ensued. The larger hawk retreated towardthe woods, but the combat was kept up until, as theyrose higher and higher, the watchers at the house lostsight of them. When last seen each was trying togain the advantage that the more elevated positionafforded. The little sparrow hawk never came back;whether he fell a victim to the larger hawk orwhether he was shot by some thoughtless gunnerwill probably never be known.
