TIE COUNTY LINE SURVEY
X. G. Quinn and Party Have Conn
pleted Their Work OF Running
County Lincs-Lubboek Short

For some months the question OF
re-surveying the lines Of Lubbock
county has been under consideration
by the County Commissioners. and Il
was finally decided that survey
should be made. in every way COM
plying with the statutes Of the state.
as well as the correct rules OF sur
veying.
The surveyors went to the south
west corner Of Wilbarger county for
a starting point. and ran to the east
line OF Hale county. or TO point
where the east line OF that county
should be. the same being the cor
rect point where the north line of
Lubbock county should be. which is =
quarter Of a mile north OF the pres-
ent line: running west they found
that the correct line IL half a mile
north of the old supposed line at
Abernathy. throwing most all OF Alb
ernathy into this county. At the north
"''t 'tsa't W A<at',%Sh INNntTs luU
line is located threeuuarters OF n

which amounts to. In round hgura.
