COOT-FOOTED TRINGA. 
Treatise set forth by him, entitled English 
Words, with a' Catalogue of English Birds 
and Fishes, &c." where he speaks of the 
Coot, adds as follows—" Mr. Johnson of 
" Brigna, near Grota - Bridge, Yorkshire, 
" shewed me a bird of the Coot kindy scailop- 
" toed, and not much bigger than a Black- 
" bird.'* As Mr. Ray has said so little of his 
bird," concludes Edwards, " it cannot be de- 
termined, whether his had any agreement, or 
not, with v/hat I have described."
