The Surveyor General OF the Northern District
| being in the Course Of duty station Il here for
/ two years, and by the uter's Rigor precluded
/ from surveying the Sea Coast, formed 4 design
1 Of obtaining, thro' his assistance perfect and
/ compleat Survey Of this Province-such interior
| Surveys being recommended IN his official In
| structions Captain Holland very obligngy
was disposed to employ himself 4 his party on
this Service if he coud he aided by three or four
additional Men to assist III the Surveys; Where
| upon | recommended to the Assembly but they
/ refused TO make any provision Tor the Expence,
! tltho' It could no; amount 10 fifty Guineas; but
| as the advantage was so evidently great, and
! such an invaluable Opp'y might never again
! happen, to acquire faithful & exact Map Of
/ the Province, unless at TAR greater Expence,
/ Capt Hollands Requisition was raised 10y sub
scription.
