THE KENTUCKY
WARBLER
"There He was—The Kentucky Warbler!"
THE KENTUCKY
WARBLER
BY
JAMES LANE ALLEN
When the population of this immense Western
Republic will have diffused itself over every acre of
ground fit for the comfortable habitation of man,
... then not a warbler shall flit through our
thickets, but its name, its notes, its habits will be
familiar to all—repeated in their sayings and
celebrated in their village songs.
—Alexander Wilson
