Athens, August 1 1934.
Dear Pete:
This is in very tardy and incomplete continuation of my letter of July 18.
I enclose a tracing showing the position of the base points A to G as they have worked out (with no little sweating) from the data I have. The scale is 1:1000. On the northern section of the plan I have marked the position of a couple of dozen points which I think Michali can find for you as they may be needed. Stakes should be well driven in and semadia on stones cut deep enough so that they may show when they are looked for in the autumn or next spring.
The numbered points are:
