The writer, being interested in the question by reason of his position as surveyor of a Pennsylvania town, has been collecting data regarding the various methods used in different cities throughout the country “to mark the street lines, what manner of range stones or monuments are used, their location, size, etc.; also what points are used as level benches and to what datum they are referred.” The subject at first glance seems a small one to spend much time in investigating, yet when it is considered how much depends upon the unalterability of street lines, there is little doubt but that the experience of all city engineers will lead them to agree upon its importance.
