[aanoxc] BOUNDARIES OF NEW BRUNSWICK 445 
Baillie in his Account of the Province of New Brunswick in 1832, and 
they are shown upon his map in that work. These divisions are, how- 
ever, nearly identical with those proposed by Hurd in his report on 
county lines already referred to, and are shown upon the map to 
illustrate it, and reproduced in this paper (Map No. 37). 
APPENDIX. 
SOURCES OF INFORMATION. 
The sources of the present work lie to a much greater degree than 
in the case of its predecessors in printed works. Nevertheless, in its 
preparation I have had the invaluable aid of several friends to whom 
I desire to make my most grateful acknowledgements. In particular 
I must express my obligations to Rev. W. O. Raymond, who has not 
only for several years past favored me with various notes and sugges- 
tions upon the subject, but also with unsurpassed generosity, has 
placed unreservedly at my disposal his most valuable collection of Ms. 
from the Chipman and Winslow papers, relating to the International 
boundaries, including nearly complete sets of the voluminous argu- 
ments, evidence, ete., of the agents of the various commissions to de- 
termine those boundaries. In addition, he has loaned me many of his 
own notes collected, I imagine, for the purpose of himself treating this 
attractive subject ; and it is only the fact that the discussion of the 
International boundaries forms an integral part of the plan of the 
present paper and series of papers which has justified me in preparing 
this work myself instead of leaving it to him for better treatment. I 
have also had the advantage at many points of the friendly aid and ad- 
vice of Mr. Victor H. Paltsits of the Lenox Library, who has always 
been ready to make available to me the resources of that great library. 
Mr. James Vroom has given me much needed aid in the tracing of the 
puzzling parish boundaries and in' other matters. And upon lesser 
points I have received cheerful co-operation from several others. 
So far as printed authorities are concerned, they have for the most 
part been amply described under the respective sections, and are listed 
in the bibliography below. As a general treatment of the boundaries 
of New Brunswick, this work has no predecessor aside from a synopti- 
cal sketch of the subject by myself published in 1898 (in Canadian 
History Readings). Indeed, from a New Brunswick point of view, 
there is almost no boundary literature of an historical character aside 
from the controversial pamphlets contemporary with the original dis- 
cussions. Thus, of all the voluminous literature of the International
