From the following note it would appear that the Doc- 

 tor occasionally turned his medical skill along avian 

 lines : 



"On February 28th (1891) a crofw was shot and 

 wounded. The broken wing has been amputated and I 

 hope that he will prove a more amiable captive than 

 the ferocious crow-blackbirds. At this time he seems to 

 have recovered from the wound." 



Crows were recorded as abundant in Baldwin County, 

 Sept. 16-Oct. 2, 1892.
