(from The Pea Ridge Pod) Mrs. Carl Wassman, who died about July 23rd at her home at Avoca, had a little friend in a mocking bird which built its nest each year in her yard. She was in the habit of feeding it and calling it her bird. This bird was a sweet singer but it was never known to sing at night until the night Mrs. Wassman lay a corpse in the front room, when it flew to the window and sang the entire night.
