Tender Hearted:
On one of the bitterest days of last week, one of Harborville's well known young men drove over to Berwick, and on the way saw a large flock of crows, seriously scanning the snow covered ground for food.
The sight was too much for the gallant captain, and upon leaving Berwick for home, he bought a sack of cracked corn. As soon as he reached the point where the crows were congregated he cut open the sack, and starting his horse dribbled the corn along the road for the benefit of the hungry crows, who after a hearty feed, held a meeting and passed a hearty and unanimous vote of thanks to their benefactor. - COM.
