On This Day in Cryptid History
May 6th: In 1973, Henry McDaniel claimed to have seen the Enfield Monster for a second time that year. In rural Illinois, McDaniel was startled awake by a howling, and when he went outside to look, saw the monster walking along a railroad trestle near his home.

Animal of the Day!
Purple Frog (Nasikabatrachus sahyadrensis)
Tumblr media
(Photo from EDGE)
Conservation Status- Endangered
Habitat- Southern India
Size (Weight/Length)- 7 cm
Diet- Insects
Cool Facts- Considered one of the weirdest looking animals on the planet, the purple frog is a funky little dude. Native to only a small mountain range in southern India, they are threatened by deforestation and population fragmentation. The purple frog spends the majority of its life underground, only surfacing once every year for two weeks. During these two weeks, large groups of frogs gather together to mate. Females lay over 3,000 eggs at one time into stagnant water where the tadpoles develop into frogs after 100 days.
Rating- 10/10 (Not sure how much I like them?)

Transcription: 
[blue /red ribbon down left side]
19-2
  Articles of a Convention concluded at the City of
Washington this Sixth day of May in the year of our Lord one
thousand eight hundred and twenty eight, between James Barbour
Secretary of War, being specially authorized therefor by the
President of the United States, and the undersigned Chiefs
and head men of the Cherokee nation of Indians, west of
the Mississippi, they being duly authorized and empowered
by their Nation.
   Whereas it being the anxious desire of the Government
of the United States to secure to the Cherokee Nation of Indians,
as well  those now living within the limits of the Territory of
Arkansas, as those of their friends and Brothers who reside
in States east of the Mississippi, and who may wish to join
their Brothers of the West, [underlined] a permanent [/underlined home, and which
shall, under the most solemn guarantee of the United States,
be, and remain theirs forever - a home that shall never, in
all future time be embarrassed by having extended around
it the lines, or placed over it the jurisdiction of a Territory
or State, nor be pressed upon by the extension, in any way,
of any of the limits of any existing Territory or State; and
Whereas the present location of the Cherokees in Arkansas, being
unfavorable to their present repose, and tending, as the past
demonstrates, to their future degradation and misery; and
the Cherokees being anxious to avoid such consequences, and
yet not questioning their right to their lands in Arkansas,
as secured to them by Treaty, and resting also upon the
pledges given them by the President of the United States,
and the Secretary of War, of March 1818, and 8th October
1821, in regard to the outlet to the West, and as may be
seen on referring to the records of the War Department,
Still, being anxious to secure a permanent home, and
to free themselves, and their posterity from an embarrassing
connexion with the Territory of Arkansas, and guard
themselves from such connexions in future; and
whereas it being important, not to the Cherokees only,
but also to the Choctaws, and in regard also to the
question which may be agitated, in the future, respect
-ing the location of the latter, as well as the former,
within the limits of the Territory or States of Arkansas,
as the case may be, and their removal therefrom; and
to avoid the cost which may attend negotiations to rid
the Territory or State of Arkansas whenever it may
become a State, of either, or both of those Tribes, the
parties hereto, do hereby conclude the following articles:
Viz:
[page 2]
[left page]
Article 11.  This Treaty to be binding on the contracting
parties so soon as it is ratified by the President of the
United States, by and with the advice and consent of
the Senate.
Done at the place, and on the
day of year above written. ~

Times Square during a civil defense exercise, May 6, 1958. It was part of a nationwide Cold War drill to practice in case of a nuclear attack.
Mayor Robert Wagner (left) and Robert E. Condon, the city's Civil Defense director, are the grim-faced officials getting updates shortly after 10:30 a.m. A take-cover signal—"a three-minute glissando of sirens"—had just sounded and the city fell eerily silent. The drill, called Operation Alert 1958, was the fifth annual civil defense test. "The public went peaceably and swiftly enough to shelter, and all non-essential traffic stopped on cue," wrote The NY Times. "However, the drill seemed to be quietly endured but not taken seriously." Some people failed to heed the sirens. In Times Square, "coffee-drinkers sitting at a big plate-glass window in a cafeteria had a perfect view of the proceedings, despite the fact that civil defense instructions adjure people seeking shelter to stay away from windows."
