The Haivkeye O. and O. 75 



We we were greatly grieved to learn of the death of Mr. 

 E. C. Greenwood, which occurred July 2 1st, 1889. Mr. 

 Greenwood was the junior member of the firm of Field & 

 Greenwood, collecting naturalists, of Brownsville, Texas. 



We learn from Mr. Field that he will continue the business

of the firm. 



J. A. Singley writes that he has returned from his collec- 

 ting trip, having had great success. He has collected some 

 very rare eggs, besides one species never taken heretofore. 

 He secured a duck new to science which will be described in 

 the Auk. With shells and fossils he was none the less success- 

 ful, having discovered new species of each. 



We must congratulate Bro. Surber on the improved ap- 

 pearance of the Loon. He now uses an appropriate engrav- 

 ing for a heading and the typographical appearance is much 

 better. The contents, as usual, are very interesting. 



Vol. I of the H. O. cannot be furnished by us at any price; 

 of the January, May and October numbers we would like to 

 buy several copies. 



The Literary Companion has again prssed into W. H. 

 Plank's hands and will he issued as formerly. Vol.. I, No. 2 

 is before us. 



Our thanks are due the Oologists' Exchange for the first 

 prize on ornithological articles entered in their recent contest. 



May we ask what the publisher of The Oologist is asham- 

 ed of? Or perhaps we may guess? 



Where is the Curlew?
