My Dear Professor Lord 
Referring to. your enquiry of yesterday, - 
I have here a very fine' specimen o r Milvulus w orf icatus which came to 
me from “near Boston Mass, May 1880”. to copy the inscription on the 
stand. Mr Graham put up some native birds for me which went into the 
cabinet at Hanover, but I do not remember about this species, though I 
have an indistinct impression' that I knew of his obtaining one here, and 
very likely I bought it. he is not here now and I cannot make enquiry 
of him. I will enquire of others about this bird being seen here. 
Yours cordially 
Jan 24-, 1 have held this letter -waiting for she return of one of our 
best observers, who was absent when your letter came. he Knew most of 
Mr Graham’s work, but does not remember that a scissor tail was ever 
shot here. Mr Brewster may be interestoed to know that a Cape May 
warbler was killed here in mid-summer suite years ago. I think that is 
more fare, and more out of its latitude than a scissor tail would be. 
I only this week learn of the death of Prof Hitchcock, which saddens 
me as it does you at Hanover. 
Yours 
sincerely
