Sir:-

Prest. Young is absent

Your map has been prepared as you requested which I have the pleasure of forwarding to you to-day.

The County lines are difficult to define, as many of them follow Mountain ranges, which are not always marked with precision in your map; but we have traced them to the very best of our ability -- without actual survey,-- & they are, at any rate, approximately correct.

Several slight alterations & additions have also been made which make your map more correct.

Your Map is very well thought of here, and, should feel disposed to send us one or two copies with the improvements, they will be duly appreciated.

Yours with respect
Geo. A. Smith
