118° 46’. Thence running northerly to the line of jurisdiction between 
the State and town in the direction of a point [known in Commissioners: 
buoy book as number 458], formed at the intersection of two ranged 
lines, one running easterly over the high part of the bluff on the north 
side of ‘Little Horseshoe” in Coscob harbor and the point where the 
black and white rocks on the extreme southeast end of Field Point come 
together ; and the other line running westerly over the north side of the 
old Benjamin Merritt House, just clear of the cedars, and the south- 
west end of Otter Rocks. This point is a little north of said line of 
jurisdiction, and is determined by the following sextant angles: Stam- 
ford lighthouse to Great Captains Island lighthouse, 87° 04’; Great 
Captains Island lighthouse to Bloomer, 107° 06’ ; Great Captains Island 
lighthouse to Portchester spire, 110° 57’. The northern side of this 
bed follows the line of jurisdiction between the State and town. The 
area of this bed is eighty-four (84) acres. 
Reference is also made to records and maps in the office of the Com- 
missioners of Shell Fisheries, for further descriptions of the various 
points used as reference points in the preceding description. 
The signal on Little Captains Island referred to in the foregoing 
description is the one established by the Commissioners’ party in 1882.

GREENWICH POINT NATURAL BED. 
Beginning ata point at the intersection of the line of jurisdiction 
between State and town, with a line ranging Seth Quintard’s house over 
Ami Ferris’ o/d house; thence running southerly on said range line to 
its point of intersection with a line ranging westerly over a round-topped 
tree in Rye and the south side of Great Captains Island at low water; 
thence westerly along said last mentioned range line to its point of in- 
tersection with a line ranging about northwesterly over the steeple of 
the Second Congregational church at Greenwich, opening west of Flat 
Neck woods; thence northwesterly along the last mentioned range line 
to where it intersects the line of jurisdiction between the State and town; 
thence easterly along said line to the point of beginning. 
The eastern line of the bed is a line which passes through two points 
which are determined by the following sextant angles, namely: First 
point: Stamford lighthouse to Greenwich Point, 105° 49’ 30’’; Greenwich 
Point to Great Captain’s Island lighthouse, 52° 17’; Stamford lighthouse 
to Horse Neck spire, 99° 13’; Horse Neck spire to Great Captains 
Island lighthouse, 58° 57’. Second point: Stamford lighthouse to 
Greenwich Point, 82° 35’; Greenwich Point to Great Captains Island 
lighthouse, 63° 32’; Stamford lighthouse to Horse Neck spire, 88° 59’; 
Horse Neck spire to Great Captains Island lighthouse, 57° 04’. 
The southern line of the bed is a line which passes through two points 
which are determined by the following sextant angles: First point: 
Stamford lighthouse to Horse Neck spire, 82° 38’ 30’’; Horse Neck
