The publications of the United States Geological Survey are issued in accordance with'the statute 

approved March 3, 1879, which declares that 

"The publications of the Geological Survey shall consist of the annual report of operations, geological 

and economic maps illustrating the resources and classification of tlio lands, and reports upon general 

and economic geology and paleontology. The annual report of operations of the Geological Survey 

shall accompany the annual report of the Secretary of the Interior. All special memoirs and reports 

of said Survey shall be issued in uniform quarto series if deemed necessary by the Director, but otherwise in ordinary octavos. Three thousand copies of each shall he published for scientific exchanges

and for sale at the price of publication; and all literary and cartographic materials received in exchange 

shall be the property of the United States and form u part of the library of the organization; and the 

money resulting from the sale of such publications shall be covered into the Treasury of the United 

States."

On July 7, 1882, the following,joint resolution, referring to all Government publications, was passed 

by Congress:

"That whenever any document or report shall be ordered printed by Congress, there shall be printed, 

in addition to the number in each case stated, the 'usual number' (734) of copies for binding and 

distribution among those entitled to receive them." ' '

Except in those cases hi which an extra number of any publication has been supplied to the Survey 

by special resolution of Congress or has been ordered by the Secretary of the Interior, this office has 

no copies for gratuitous distribution.

A GEOGRAPHIC* DICTIONARY OF MASSACHUSETTS.

The Geographic Dictionary of Massachusetts, which constitutes this 

bulletin, is designed to aid in finding any geographic feature upon the 

atlas sheets of that State which are published by the U. S. Geological 

Survey. It contains all the names given upon the sheets, and is limited to them. Under each name is a brief statement showing the feature 

it designates and its location, and opposite to it the name of the atlas 

sheet, or sheets, upon which it is to be found.

The atlas sheets upon which the State is represented are the result 

of a survey made at the joint expense of the TJ.-S. Geological Survey 

and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The scale upon which they 

are published is 1:62500; that is, 62,500 inches, upon the ground, 

or very nearly one mile, is represented by one inch upon the map. 

Belief, or the variation of elevation, is represented by contour lines, 

or lines of equal elevation above mean sea level. These contour lines 

are at vertical intervals of 20 feet; that is, each successive contour 

indicates a level 20 feet higher than the one below it. Upon the map 

all water bodies bays, ponds, rivers, etc. are represented in blue; 

the contour lines representing the relief, together with the figures 

representing absolute elevations, are printed in brown; while the lettering and all symbols of the works of man are printed in black.

The area of the State is represented upon 54 sheets, each sheet comprising 15 minutes of latitude by 15 minutes of longitude. The territory covered by each sheet is3 therefore, about 17£ miles from north to 

south, and about 13 miles from east to west, and its area is about 225 

square'miles. Of these sheets 29 only lie entirely or virtually within 

the State, the others comprising portions of the adjacent States of 

New Hampshire, Vermont, Kew York, Ehode Island and Connecticut. 

The following is a list of the sheets, showing the names assigned 

to them and their limits in latitude and longitude:

GANNETT.] A GEOGRAPHIC DICTIONARY OF MASSACHUSETTS. 9-

The spelling of the names conforms to the decisions of the United 

States Board on Geographic Names.

Massachusetts is one of the original thirteen States. It was the sixth 

to ratify the Constitution, which it did on February 0,1788.

The boundary lines between Massachusetts and adjacent States are 

somewhat irregular. They were established, in the main, during 

colonial days as the result of compromises between conflicting claims 

for jurisdiction among the colonies. The lines were surveyed and 

marked also in early days, when methods of surveying were much 

cruder than at present. Both of these facts serve to account for "their 

irregularity.

The eastern part of the north boundary is a line traced at a distance 

of 3 miles from the main course of the Merrimac River and parallel 

to its windings. As run and marked it consists of a series of straight 

lines broken by angles generally parallel to the river. At a point three 

miles north of Pawtucket Falls it ceases to run parallel to the river, 

and .thence it was designed to run due west. This was the result of 

a compromise between the colonies of Massachusetts Bay and New 

Hampshire, thus settled by a decree of the king. The line westward 

.from that point was run under instructions from the governor of New 

Hampshire, who furnished to the surveyor as the magnetic variation 

an amount largely in excess of the fact. The line was run accordingly, 

and consequently is directed considerably north of west.

The west boundary of the State is the result of an agreement made . with the New York colony, and the south boundary is similarly the 

result of compromises and conventions between the colony and State 

of Massachusetts and its neighbors, Connecticut and Rhodei Island. 

These boundaries are so irregular that it is impossible to describe 

tliem otherwise than by means of a map or by a detailed statement of 

courses and distances.

The total area of the State is 8,315 square miles, of which it is estimated that 275 square miles are water surface, consisting of landlocked bays, ponds, and rivers, leaving as the land area 8,040 square 

miles.

The State is divided into fourteen counties, and these are subdivided into towns and cities, of which there are 352. The following 

table presents a list of the counties, with the number of towns and 

cities in each and the area of each county:
