In view of the release this year of Greenberg's "A Feathered River Across the Sky," an excellent examination of the sad career of the Passenger Pigeon, here are some snippets of newspaper accounts from various spots in Ohio in the old days, found by the prodigious researcher James Ducey. The Ohio spots include Cincinnati, Wilmington, Urbana, Bellefontaine, Chardon, Cleveland, Canton, Columbus, St. Clairsville, Ashtabula, West Union, Delaware, and Piqua.
