' 1 'HE council of proprietors of the eastern divifi-
A on of New-Jersey met at Princeton on the 6th
inst. having thought it expedient and proper that
the Surveyor-General's office for the said eastern dl
vifion should be opened in its full extent, for the
purpose of returning and recording of surveys of
land in any part of the unappropriated estate of the
said proprietors. And as it is at prefect impracti
cable to hold the laid office at the city of Perth-
Amboy, the place it was formerly held at, I have
ordered and directed that a publick office be open
ed and held at Trenton, as a fafe and convenient
place for the purpose: and I have appointed John
Stevens, jun. Esquire, Deputy Surveyor-General of
the said eastern diviCon, in order to receive, return
and record all surveys of land in the unappropriat
ed part of the said eastern division, to record all
deeds and other infrumeuts, and fafely to keep all
maps, charts and draughts relative to the said pro
prietary estate, or any part thereof: of which all
concerned will take notice.
The Deputy Surveyors in the fevera! counties are
to bring in their deputation, in order to be entered
in the said office; till which is done their furce;^
