Text Appearing Before Image:
in this region obtained at stations, only one of whichis identical with any of those named above. Considering that the present adopted azimuth depends upon 73 azimuth determina-tions or stations of the triangulation along the 39th parallel, any new or independentcorrection that might Ije deduced for standard value in the oblique arc would probablynot differ from it h\ as much as one .second. *The last value of our table is marked as doubtful for the reason that the accuracy both of the astronomic andgeodetic measures is inferior to that of the other tabular re.sults; and. moreover, its appearance with a large positivevalue (pointing to westerly deflection) in a region where minus values predominate imparts to it an anomalous char-.acter, especially in a flat region of quaternary formation without any surface indications to justify or account for areversal in the direction of the disturbed noiiual of the place. No further use will be made of this station iii coiinec-lion with azimuths
