Note 192 — Chapter XIV · A MEETING OF RIVALS, AND A SKETCH OF ANOTHER PIONEER

See Ord's charge of plagiarism against Audubon (Bibl. No. 145) in the Proceedings of the American Philosophical Society, vol. i (1840). So far as could be ascertained in the summer of 1915, Wilson's diary of 1810 was not in the possession of any library or scientific society in Philadelphia, nor was it in the large collection of books which was given by Ord to the College of Physicians and Surgeons of that city at the time of his death in 1866.
