| List No |

| Note |
Another school girl's map, very large (two sheet). Probably used Matthew Carey's Map of the British Possessions in North America (1804 ed.) which is smaller than this map but has all the same place names and legends. However, our young cartographer had to figure out the U.S. part of her map by consulting other maps (Carey's does not go that far south) and it is not clear which maps she used - she shows some interesting trails in the states which we can't find on other maps. Overall, an impressive production, somewhat crude in the lettering, but a big effort. Map in outline color. |

New England. H. Leland. |

3195.000 |
| Note |
Very well executed uncolored map with small vignettes. Leland is probably the Henry Leland mentioned in Appletons' as an artist, although his dates are listed as 1850-1877. The map is dated as 1853 because of the watermark date on the paper. However, the map could have been drawn later. In any event, the name of Henry Leland goes back to the Henry Leland who settled in Massachusetts in 1653 - this H. Leland who made the map is probably from that family. |

| List No |
3451.000 |
| Note |
Beautiful hand drawn map of the Los Angles-San Bernardino Basin. Pen-and-ink and pencil. Relief shown by hachures. It appears to be a base map on a scale of two miles to an inch, probably preliminary (several of Hall's notations on the edges indicate corrections needed to the topography) and earlier than the 1888 Report titled "Irrigation in California" that had 15 maps that may have been derived from this map. It may also have served as the base for "Drainage area map to accompany report on irrigation and water supply in California" by Wm. Ham. Hall, State Engineer. (188-?). Hall was a famous engineer who was the first state engineer and was responsible for many of the early state water projects (see California Water Atlas). This map does not have any names drawn in except for a few towns, rivers, or railroads lightly penciled in. All the land divisions and city plats are indicated, with mountains, rivers, railroads, roads, arroyos and shorelines shown. Hall also published four maps of the San Joaquin Valley in 1886 (see WH's copy) separately (see Calfornia Water Atlas p.26). "VI." Title and cartographer from verso. "14" on verso. |

The state maps are dated 1816, the other three maps are undated. The Ontario, Pittsburgh and Zanesville maps are copied from similar maps that appear in Melish's "Geographical Description," most likely the 1820 or 22 edition because of the rounded corners which do not appear in the earlier editions of 1815 and 16. The state maps are copied from Scott's Gazetteer of 1795. The penmanship is very good. All maps in outline color. Relief shown by hachures and shadings. |
