Note 784 — Chapter V · (continued 2)
Reading edition
Carter-Brown, ii. no. 1,261; Barlow’s Rough List, no. 675-76; Harvard Col. Lib. Catalogue, no. 12352.4. It is reprinted in Carroll’s Hist. Coll., ii. 19. The book should be accompanied by a map called “A new description of Carolina by order of the Lords Proprietors,” which shows the coast from the Chesapeake to St. Augustine. The book throws no light on the sources of the map; but Kohl, who has a sketch of the map in his Washington collection (no. 211), thinks White’s map served for the North Carolina coast, and Wm. Sayle’s surveys for the more southerly parts. Kohl says that the boundary line here given between Virginia and Carolina is laid down for the first time on a map. The river May flows from a large “Ashley lake.”
