While dinosaurs are chiefly known from reconstruction of fossil bones found In the western states, where these pre-hlstortc creatures were ap parently moat abundant, many tracks of these creatures hare been found In eastern states before, although few re mains of tlie fossil reptiles themselves have yet come to light In the East. The first evidence of dinosaurs was turned up by a farmer's plow In Con necticut In 1802, and was In tlte form of Impressions sim ilar to the footprints In the sands of geologic time Just un earthed near Leesburg. At that time, these mysterious trucks were thought to belong to some unknown bird and became known as the tracks of Noah’s raven. Later investigation and the finding of skeletal remains of the di nosaurs In the West In 1870 showed that extinct reptiles of gigantic size had made them. The finding of these fossils where President Monroe once lived has re called to historians that Thomas Jef ferson, another president from Virginia and a close personal and political friend of Uonroe'a, was on of thia fossil bunt'ers and himself discovered what he termed | Ueg, i „ nyXi or -»The Great C|uw>~ „ T he weovor, ar sting bull, as it to sometime« called, to a Osh native of the Mediterranean.
