The History of the Forty-ninth Parallel Survey West of the Rocky Mountains. By Otto Klotz

Abstract

"'The object of this paper is to tell the - one may almost say - romantic story of the survey in 1857-61 of the boundary between the United States and Canada along the 49th parallel west of the summit of the Rocky Mountains and to relate how the final report, which had been lost until that time, was found in July, 1898."
