Sketch of a surveying party
Description
Estcourt sketched a surveying party at work in the Stanstead Plains, Maine during the joint boundary commission. The surveyors are using long poles to measure and compare their positions. At the bottom he wrote, "Now Maxime, I'll go over there and put you in a straight line, a droit et a gauche."
