The editor stated that Audubon had spent twenty-two years in the study of American birds, and that the engravings, of which several had already appeared, would be accompanied by a quarto volume of letterpress, containing all his observations on the natural history of the species, in the form of letters, an example of which was given in the paper on the Turkey Buzzard in the present number of that Journal (see [No. 17]).

This notorious attack upon Audubon's veracity was followed by Waterton (see [No. 115]), and referred to by Victor Audubon (see [No. 118]), in his reply. Audubon's original article (see [No. 21]) was published by this editor, who knew so little of its author that not even his name was given correctly.
