The Sharp-tailed Sparrow ( Ammodramus caudacutus) in a Fresh-Water 
Marsh. — I am informed by my friend, Mr. Lewis M. Todd, of Calais, Me., 
that during the autumn of 1886 he captured one of these Sharp-tails on a 
marsh some distance above the falls on the St. Croix River. The water at 
that point must be free from saline flavor, as the falls prevent the sea 
water from reaching it. — Montague Chamberlain, St. John , At. B. 
Auk, 4, July 1887. p. 5.6/
