Capture of the Caeolina Wren awd oTiiiin gutnan B ii totip in 

 Ki-iODB Island. — A friend of mine, Mr. George -M.-Gra^fy^ recently 

 brought me a male Great Carolina "Wren {Thryolhorus ludovicianus) , which 

 he shot at Bristol, R. I., August 14, 1880. On hearing its notes he at 

 first thought it was some one whistling, but on answering it the bird soon 

 came within shot, and he killed it.

The Carolina Wren Breeding in Rhode Island. — On May n, 1S99, I 

 found in Middletown, R. I., a male Carolina Wren {Thryothorus ludovi- 

 cianus) and three young ones just able to fly. As they were together 

 when I found them they no doubt belonged to the same family and, from 

 the age of the young, could not have been far from their nest. As the 

 bird is rare here, the above may be of interest to the readers of 'The 

 Auk.' — Edward 'Sturtevant, Neivfort, R. I.
