The King Rail in Plymouth County, Massachusetts. — On January 20, 
1903, an adult female, Rallus elegant was short by Mr. Clarence Chandler 
at Ellisville, Plymouth County, Mass. The bird was at once sent to me 
and proved to be quite fat and in fine plumage. When shot the rail was 
skulking among some low bushes and dry grass near a salt marsh. —
