Replying, ] beg TO say that II is possible
TO give you the desired information to q
degree approximating accuracy. However,
TO do so would necessitate the examina-
tion OF the records covering period of
over twenty-five years, which would re-
quire the taking out and careful inspec-
ton OF some half million files. the exam
ination OF the map OF each file, the nd-
justment OF every survey which may In
the least conflict with any other location,
the determination of the validity of each
survey aud the careful computation OF the
result thus found. also the present unsur-
veyed land would then have to be csti-
mated As II now appears on the map, as
pc field notes have ever been filed here by
which the exact amount can be nsrer-
tanned.
To do this work the present force Is in-
adequate. The minimum time and force
necessary to do this would be, in my tudg-
mont four good, active men for SIX
months. The salary that should be pai,'
the clerks assigned to this duty ought 10
be sufficient to secure capable persons,
hut the amount OF such salary Is a matter
entirely within your discretion. However
win suggest that in the event such an
undertaking is provided for. II would BE-
best to make sufficient allowance for extra
clerks In case 1t should be found that the
work could not be accomplished by the
estimated force In the time that might DO
