A printed set of instructions developed "for avoiding errors and mistakes, for the easier revising and correcting of your works, and for the greater uniformity." The instructions provide examples for survey return reports, examples for the compilation of field notes and for general surveying practice. The final page authorizes surveyors to swear all chain bearers and makers to the faithful execution of their duties.
