THE KENTUCKY WARBLER
[Illustration: "THERE HE WAS--THE KENTUCKY WARBLER!"]
THE KENTUCKY WARBLER
by
JAMES LANE ALLEN
[Illustration: logo]
_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._
