Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Audubon Magazine, Vol. 2: Published in the Interests of the Audubon Society for the Protection of Birds, February, February 1888, to January, 1889 I have a copy of the naturalist's life, writ ten by his Widow from his journal, which he kept up with more or less fullness during his rambles and journeys. It seems to me I have read the book through as many as a dozen times, and I am sure I am by no means through with it yet. We all know the little work, and revere it. Sometimes, however, we find little snatches here and there which Mrs. Audubon did not record, as they are the observations of others. Mr. Coale has collected and given me a few of these relics, mostly from periodicals and newspapers. One is a reprint, made by himself, from Gleason's Pictorial, (vol. III., no. 13, p. 196) and a very quaint old account it is, too, being illustrated by a coarse woodcut of Audubon, when I should say-he was about thirty-three or thirty-four years of age.
