Where Town and Country Meet 



is a noticeably graceful bird in form and 

 action, and by far the most attractive of 

 all the hermits of the marsh. With the 

 first frosts in the fall the Wilson's snipe 

 starts once more upon its semi-yearly pil- 

 grimage, journeying toward the far South 

 by easy stages, and running as best it can 

 the gauntlet of fire that meets it all along 

 the route.
