liam J. Latimer, Of Auacostia. to sell his
valuable collection Of maps. notes and
other data relating to the survey OF lands

The Commissioners have just received
a special report upon the subject from
H. p. LOCKER. the District Surveyor. He
states that he has made a preliminary
examination OF the notes and data in
question and has satisfied himself Of their
value 10 the District. The Surveyor goes
so far as 20 say that he would regard
DO as unfortunate if the District should
not obtain them
Mr. LOCKER says that such notes as are
placed in plat form are in excellent
shape. showing reference points or sur
vey wherever placed by Mr. Larimer. As
practically all the surveying for fifteen or
twenty years back has been done by Mr.
Latimer. the Surveyor says that his Of
fee is as much in the dark regarding

chase OF the Brewer collection

as TO make the collection still more valu-
able 20 the District. Mr.. LOCKER thinks
that action should be taken I'm the mat
ter al once as the death Of Mr.. Brewer
