I backed up to get it, I saw the
old bird in the road with his
wlnges spread out. I thought he
was dead and I picked up his
wings to look him over. The
minute I Isid hands on him the
old bird Just socked his clsws
into my hand. So there we
were. I had him and he had me.
About that time another fellow
came along, some tourist from
Csllfornis, and I flagged .him
down with my elbow. My
hands were kind of full at the
time."
The two of them got the bird
In a box and then Wilson drove
