Upon arriving at the Glen House, July 20, I found 
throe of those Sandpipers on the neighboring mill-pond. 
I supposed that they had either eggs or young but on 
shooting and dissecting them found that they had not ap¬ 
parently bred this year. The next day so'/oral more had 
taken their places, and these being killed others appear¬ 
ed a few days later; thus they continued to arrive dur¬ 
ing my stay and I was convinoed that they were already 
migrating. When driven from the mill-pond they often 
flew directly into the forest v/here they v/ould alight on 
some fallen log and remain until all became quiet again.
