Surveys, principal roads, Public works and con-
templated public Improvements, together with
the Lakes, Rivers, Indian Reservation, counties
Towns, cities and villages, which will be laid
down with the greatest possible accuracy.
There is no doubt that this map will cont a in
the most minute and authentic information of
any state map ever published. One of the pro-
prietors has visited every county in the S;ats for
the purpose ofgatherihg every Information requis-
lite, to insure correctness. This fact of itself,
will necessarily give assurance to those who NAV
