Survey of a Portion of the Line Called for by the 5th Article of the Treaty of Prairie du Chien of the 19th August 1825: Beginning Half a Days March Below the Falls on Chippeway River and Passing the Red Cedar River
This map shows a line, marked with latitude and longitude coordinates that runs through Prairie du Chien. Only a few features beyond this line are displayed, such as Otter Tail Lake, Sac River, Mississippi River, Rum River, Greenstone River, Feast River, Red Cedar River, and the Chippeway River (there are a few more listed but their names are difficult to read). A block of text on the map reads "Survey of a portion of the line called for by the 5th article of the Treaty of Prairie du chien of the 19th August 1825. beginning half a days march below the falls on Chippaway River and passing Red Ceder River immediately below the falls &c &c under instructions of the Superintendent of Indian Affairs at St. Louis of April 23rd 1835 and agreeable to contract of same date by Jon L. Bean Surveyor of Indian boundary lines." |
