is the second season that I have searched the Fresh Pond 
>4 $ ^-.swamps ^ >or Connecticut Warblers-in vain, I do not believe they can 
have been there in any numbers. On two successive days I met a 
young collector (Brown I believe) there hunting them. He told me 
that he had considerable experience collecting them in these swamp 
but could find none now. Last autumn he was not here. He promised 
to send me word if he found any subsequently but I have not yet 
n 
heard from him.
