Description
This report was prepared in accordance to a 1836 resolve by the Legislature of Massachusetts "That the Governor with the advice of Council, is hereby authorized to employ some suitable person or persons to make a Geological Survey of any lands in Maine, where such Survey, together with the various observations which the surveyors will have opportunity to make, will probably lead to a more accurate knowledge of the worth of the public domain."
