The map " i'll cont ain all the information usual
II found in Town maps. for each of the towns In
the cou4ty and it is obvious that the most lberai
patronage is needed to sustain us in producing a
work of so great magnitude and expense. As 1t
is evidently of such practical utility and inter est
to business men and citizens generally, present
ing so minute and distinct representation OF the
county, tha even the child may readily acquire
corr. ct idea Of each town, village, &C., and their
trne directions distances from each other, we con-
h,enty solicit and expect the hearty cooperation
of the intelligent and enterprising citizens OF Ceu-
ire county.
Na- These maps are said exclusively by the
Publisher. and no variation in price. No more
maps are printed than what actually ordered
We the undersigned, having examined the re-
cent surveys AMI drafts of Centre county, also
Typographical Maps of other counties, pullshed
by Mr.. S. D. Tilden take pleasurein recommend
ing Topographscal Map of this county, which is
very much needed, being of great practical value
to business men and citizens generally, and from
he united testimonials and recon men dations the
ave from distinguished gentlemen wh-re they
ave made surveys and published county maps
We feel confident they will furnish an accurate,
reliable and useful Map and Directory well w3r-
ty of liberal patronage.
W hope the citizens Of this county will interes
themselves sufficiently in this enterprise, so thai
the Publisher may engrave upon the margin O
the map extra plans of the villages in the county
up-n an enlarged scale.
Considering the expense of such survey of the
whole county. and being entirely local work W.
think it is offered to the citizens on very reason
able terms.
