"On the 29th of April, 1889, Mr. J. E. Gould shot a spec- 

 imen of Harris Sparrow two miles north of Columbus, Ohio. 

 Four or five others were observed feeding in a thicket in 

 company with the White-throated Sparrow, Z. albicolHs." 

 The specimen was presented to Mr. Davie, and his identifi- 

 cation corroborated by Mr. C. F. Batchelder. The skin is 

 now in the collection of the Ohio State University. This 

 small group must have wandered far out of their way in 

 the northward migration.
