Excerpt from The American Journal of Science and Arts, Vol. 105: January to June, 1873 The two largest specimens, dredged in 28 fathoms, east of Grand Menan, by the writer, measured 5 inches across the disk and tentacles, but their bodies were mutilated. Entire ones of much smaller size were dredged by Dr. Packard and Ir. Cooke in 110 and 150 fathoms, soft mud, near St. George's Bank.

Excerpt from The American Journal of Science and Arts, Vol. 113: January to June, 1877 Northwest wind at Eastport, Fort Garry, Fort Sully, Mt. Washington, Norfolk, Oswego and Pembina. At three of these stations, viz: Cleveland, Duluth and Os wego, the northerly wind was probably the result of the cooler air of the Lakes moving toward the warmer land. Three of the stations, viz: Fort Sully, Fort Garry and Pembina, were situated on the north side of the area which was most heated; and two other stations, viz: Eastport and Mt. Washington were on the extreme eastern border of the heated area. At Mobile the velocity of the wind was only one mile per hour; at Norfolk and Yankton it was four miles; and at Santa Fe five miles per hour.
