Excerpt from Report of the Engineer Geologist in Relation to the New Map: To the Executive of Maryland
IN the Report, which twelve months ago, the Undersign ed, had the honor to lay before your Excellency, reference was made to several works of proposed internal improve ment, which either had already engaged, or were expected during the season just past to occupy his care and atten tion. The local advantages and importance of these seve ral works were thought by the Legislature, suficient to warrant the immediate devotion of time which was other wise to have been spent in the labors of the new map; and the Undersigned, in carrying into effect the resolutions, and prosecuting the surveys for the respective works, has spared neither personal toil, nor studious investigation, to ascertain and eliminate the facts and results which appeared proper to answer the objects and satisfy the interests of each.
