Early Governors' Papers

commissioners appointed by both States before them can connect those lines without doing violence to other parts of the compact we would further remark that whether those marks north of Walkers general line were made by Walker are litle to the purpose Walkers work out to be a strait line extending to the Tennessee River this would give a uniformity to the boundary between the two States and tranquility to the people immediately interested, With this view of the subject we would respectfully submit the following (viz) That in your correspondence with the Executive of Kentucky You permit him by his surveyor or Surveyors to remark and settle Walkers line from the Southeast corner of Trigg County to the Tennessee River, And where no marks can be found that he shall be governed by the Course of Said line We believe this would be in strict Conformity with the expectation of praise worthy Spirit in which the stipulation was made

We tender those remarks with feelings & views congenial with that vital self governing Principle that so eminently adorns our system of Government
