The Mason and Dixon line is a line run
ming along the parallel of latitude IS deg 43
mn 2S.3 Sec, and separating Pennsylvania
from Maryland, drawn by two English
astronomers and mathematicians, Charles
Mason and jeremiah Dixon. For about so
years after 1851 there were constant dissen
sions between Lord Baltimore and the Penn
family, the rival propriet0rs in Pennsyl-
vania and Mary land, in regard to the posi-
ti0n of the boundary line between their
colonial possessions. An agreement was
come to in 1860, In accordance with which n
party OF surveyors commenced TO mark out
the real boundary.
standing the length Of time required for
such an undertaking, and growing impa-
tieDt, sent out Mason and Dixon to COM
plete the surveys, who commenced the
work in December, 1853. They concluded
their work in 1867, having marked ont a line
PA miles in length, passing through forests,
over mountain ridges, etc. At the end Of
every filth mile. 10 Is said a stone was
placed on which was engraved on one side
the arms of Lord Baltimore. on the other
those Of the Penn. The intermed ate miles
were marked by smaller stones with NJ. on
one side and p. on the other. All The stones
came from England.
The surveys were revised in 1919 and
found substantially correct. This line
must be distinguished from that OF IS deg
30 seconds, which separated the tree and
slave States OF the original confederation.
The latter is also the compromise line
which in 1920 was fixed as the most north
ern limit of such slave States as should be
admitted into the Union. The tract of
land granted to Penn in 1851 lay west

the seat lie grabbed the lines, but failed
TO stop the horses before two wheels had
passed over the teamster's BODY.

scious, mangled teamster was conveyed to

val there il was discovered that the unfor-
tunate teamster was dead. The remains
