Dear Bob: At last I have the owl, complete with movable head and wings, the caller and the record. At Gettysburg I did not have a record player so I had to experiment with the caller on my own. This I did for two days.1
Last evening I brought the caller and record down here, and I suppose I will be driving everybody out of the house with my practice until I again go back to the farm. (Incidentally, from the moment the owl arrived until I left last evening, I didn't see a single crow in the neighborhood.)
My grateful thanks for all the trouble you have taken. I am really going to work at the business of getting rid of crows.2 As ever
