- Scope and content:
-
A.L.S. Spring Bank, Virginia to Mount Vernon. Discusses the route of the turnpike and that it should go through Mr. E's land. It would split it up, and so Mason wants to offer other alternatives. Much of the land is prone to flooding and marshy. It would be very expensive to put the road through that.
