Post Morfcem Reports. 
Nonpareil Bunting : G. J. Slade, Southampton. — Cause of death enteritis. 
Finch : A. H. Barnes, London, — Cause of death ruptured mesenteric artery. 
This is a fairly common mishap in birds. I do not know whether it is 
due to arterial disease or violence from the bird hitting- against the wires. 
Probably it is a combination of the two. 
P.i TKi' KiGAR : R. E. Simpson, Armley. — Cause of death pneumonia, probably 
due to the change of quarters at the wrong time of year.
