5- Crex crex. Corn Crake. — In the shop of Messrs. Lucas 
Buck, of Sag Harbor, I found a mounted specimen of this 
species, which I purchased. They bought it about August 15, 
1S85, while in the flesh, from a farmer residing near Amagan- 
sett, Suffolk Co. It was, when shot, on an upland or dry 
meadow, in company with some Meadow Larks ( Sturnella 
magna). The sex was not ascertained.

12. Crex crex. Corn Crake. — Since my previous record of this bird 
on Long Island,! I have had a mounted specimen presented to me by Mr. 
A. A. Fraser, who “bagged the bird, November 2, 1880. It was at the 
toot of the uplands, where they join the meadows, in heavy cover, with 
springs running from it.”
