Nest of Long-billed Marsh Wren lined with a Snake Skin. — On 



June 6, 1898, on the meadow near Rutherford, New Jersej, I found a 

 curious nest of Cistoihorus j>alustris. It was fastened two feet above the 

 water, to some green cat-tails, and was composed of reeds and broad 

 grasses, and lined with a cast-off snake skin which was about a foot long. 

 It contained six fresh eggs.— Josiah H. Clark, Paterson, N. T.
