Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Ramble Along the Boundary Stones of the District of Columbia With a Camera
A summary shows that fourteen of the stones are in good condition, six Of the stones are in very poor state of preservation and should be replaced in the near future by perfect stones. One is worn totally smooth another stands in the waters of the Potomac, and two lean badly. Ten Of them are more or less worn and scarred by the hand of time or battered by the hand Of man, as might be expected after their solitary vigil of sixscore years.
Eight of the stones are in the dense woods and at the present time quite difficult to find, though the rapid growth of building operations towards the outer limits of the District during the past two years bids fair to soon eliminate all woods and leave only the Open fields.
