Milford, Del, March 7, A large hawk almost killed a small son of L. N. Horsey, a farmer near here.
The hawk had killed two chickens when Edward threw a snowball at it. The bird abandoned its meal and turned on the boy. It sank its talons into his face and began digging him with its sharp bill. His father seized an ax and finally managed to kill the hawk.
