Carrier pigeon saves child with quick medicine drop
A San Francisco family used a carrier pigeon to deliver a medical message and medicine from 625 Market Street to a Cliff House area home five miles away. The bird reached the store in ten minutes and returned with the vial, delivering medicine within 20 minutes of the mother’s plea for help. The incident convinced G F Marsh, a Japanese curiosities dealer and Pacific Coast Pigeon Society member, of the bird’s worth.
