the two counties of Kent and Sussex. This, so far as we know,

The first was killed near Lewes, in Sussex, on December 

 23rd, 1869, and was bought by the late Mr. T. J. Monk from

 time Mr. Monk met him, carrying the bird in his hand. I 

 have often had the story from Mr. Monk's own lips. After 



Male Black-throated Thrush shot at Newenden, Kent, on 

 January 30th, 1909.

 Museum at Brighton, and amongst them was this specimen

For the second recorded specimen obtained in Great Britain,

 now in the Perth Museum, which was shot in February, 1879, 

 on the banks of the Tay, and originally recorded by Col.
