It was reported some time after my article on the cowbird was first published in Appleton's "Popular Science Monthly."
Appleton's rich, besides he's a softwood man an' ain't fixed for handlin' veneer, so I might's well get in on the bird's-eye as let you an' Creed an' Lebolt steal it all. But I ain't got to the point where I'd murder a good man to cover up my dirty tracks an' I never will!" And so, without consulting Stromberg, Moncrossen bided his time and laid his plans. And now the time had come.
Consult also Appleton's Annual Cyclopaedia, 1861-1902. On foreign relations J.B. Moore, Digest of International Law, 8 vols., . Periodical literature. Jefferson Davis, the President of the Confederate States, was held in prison until 1867 and then released. He died in 1889.
But forty men were together unharmed at the end of the contest." That my account of this fight may not stand alone as a stubborn and desperate one, I will quote from the account of it as found in Appleton's Annual of 1862. While it may be obnoxious to the charge of gushiness, to those who were in this fight, by daylight, or in the night, I think scarcely anything can appear exaggerated.
The copious lists of historical works appended to Larned's "History for Ready Reference" will be useful here. Biography stands close to history in interest and importance. For general reference, or the biography of all nations, Lippincott's Universal Pronouncing Dictionary of Biography is essential, as well as Appleton's Cyclopaedia of American Biography, for our own country.

As the current quickened the progress of the little party became slower and more exhausting.
And as I rode away I heard him calling across the fence to his wife, who was standing in the door of a small whitewashed cabin, near which we had been standing for some time: "Judy, have Marse Chan's dawg got home?" Appleton's Journal, December 30, 1871. At the head of the first flight of stairs, and on opposite sides of the landing, were the respective rooms of Mr. Bixby and Mr. Bangs.
Sure you know, I must help the 'duck of diamonds' here to count her stitches." "Paddy," said Larry, in a friendly whisper, "put this whiskey past for a while, barrin' this bottle that we must taste for good luck. Sam Appleton's to come up afther us an', I suppose, some o' your own cleavens 'll be here afther a while." "Thrue for you," said Donovan.
A few weeks later our team went up to Princeton to see the Harvard-Princeton match and I recall, as though it were yesterday, Alex Moffat kicking five goals against Appleton's team, three of them with the right and two with the left foot. I remember walking in from the field with Harvard's captain, and he said to me 'Moffat is a phenomenon. Truly he was."
