Page:Origin of Certain Place Names in the United States (1905).djvu/11



Washington, D. C, January, 1905.


 * I transmit herewith a bulletin on the origin of place names in the United States. This is a second edition of Bulletin No. 197. The material has been compiled from various sources, printed and manuscript, as set forth in the introduction. I think this work will be of great interest as embodying much local and general history.

Very respectfully,

Hon. Charles D. Walcott, Director United States Geological Survey.
