TENNESSEE-ALABAMA. 
PRIMARY TRAVERSE. 
Between November 15, 1902, and January 15, 1903, 154 miles of 
primary traverse were run by Mr. E. L. McNair, topographer, for the 
control of the Mannie sheet, embracing most of Wayne and a portion 
of Lawrence County. The line begins at Kelleys Landing, on the 
Tennessee River, a position determined by Mr. George T. Hawkins, 
topographer, in 1897, and runs south along country roads to the Ala- 
bama line ; thence east near the State line to Iron City, Tenn. , on the 
Louisville and Nashville Railway; thence north over country roads 
to Napier. A spur was also run from Iron City to Tuscumbia, Ala., 
along the Louisville and Nashville Railway; thence east along the 
Southern Railway to Tanyard triangulation station, near Town Creek. 
This control was supplemented in March, 1903, by a line 32 miles 
in length run by Mr. Sledge Tatum, topographer, from a point near 
Abner post-office westward through Waynesboro across the quad- 
rangle.
