 Trumbull comments on Wilson's name Horse-foot snipe, and al- 

 though he could not find it in use, expresses his faith in local 

 names by remarking "yet in some out-of-the-way corner," the 

 tumstone "may still be the Horse-foot snipe as it was in Wilson's 

 time" (p. 185). However, Giraud (Birds of Long Island, 1844, 

 p, 221) notes the use of this name at Egg Harbor, and virtually 

 the same name, that is, king-crab bird, is now in use at Beaufort, 

 N. C. (Harper). Both refer to the tumstone's fondness for eggs 

 of the horse-shoe crab.
