the work of surveying was done by Washing

"When engaged in engineering lower down
the river-that is, between Harpers Ferry
and Georgetown-I have not unfrequently
hunted up and found beech marks made by
the hand of Washington himself their posi-
ton being so distinctly and accurately indi-
Gated in his notes OF his surveys (sull pre-
served) as that there was no mistaking their
paternity. In all, hundreds, it may be, of
civil engineers have labored over the routes
of Washington's original survey of the Po-
tomac in the last thirtythree or four years,
and, one and all, they will testify that the
bors, prove his remarkable method in all
things, as unerringly as his subsequent glo-
rious military and civil history
