about weeks five ago a friend of mine told me he had caught a bird feeding with his chickens and asked me what he should do with it i gave the N.H.U. SECS address as the bird was unable to fly he reported it twice and heard nothing from sec i looked on the ring and found it rung nehu.27k313 i reported it with another nehu35d1012 which had dropped on my loft terribly injured about the head neither of them fit fit to fly or i would have releasrd them.i reported then again heard nothing .this leaves me two options.release them and let tha cats get them or wring ther necks i want to do nither i want no reward or fee as i am a fancier and like to treat other peoples birds as my own.i have dressed the injured bird head and on its the road to recovery i was advisd to kill it as it was so badly hurt i have made up my mind that are the last birds i ever report yours in disgust H.A.Hales western place sharnbrook bedford PS this letter was from the RACING PIGEON AUGUST 31 1935 NOTHING CHANGED
