66 SHELTON : 



No. 4, at the Sixty-ninth Street Terminal, seems to have 

 disappeared. 



No. 5, at the University of Pennsylvania's Astronomical 

 Observatory, seems to have disappeared. 



No. 6 is in the bank, at the corner of the toll gate house 

 at Llanerch. 



No. 7 is deep in the grass between two telegraph poles, in

No. 8 is built into the east end of the north side girder

No. 9 seems to have disappeared, It was near the old
