in answer to my recently wondering to brian if this mr gregory spies might <br/>
also help us out with an alflga marker<br/>
look mano hands<br/>
<br/>
also a fresh trove of ellicottiana<br/>
some of the madness behind the method<br/>
& even the makings of a real ellicott society<br/>
all highlighted by confirmation of 7 extant mounds on alfl alone plus 1 on <br/>
flga<br/>
several of which had scarcely eluded my own personal quest at various times<br/>

indian cheating<br/>

<br/>
for new members i should perhaps explain all this excitement<br/>
is just that ellicott is the father of american tripointing<br/>
having visited & indeed created as many as 20 of the earliest tristate <br/>
points<br/>
before 1820 when they were a lot harder both to get to & to come by<br/>
<br/>
& the esus line he created in 1799 between the mississippi & the <br/>
chattahoochee<br/>
was the longest visibly straight line written on the world of that day<br/>
<br/>
it wasnt until 1819 thru 1846 that the much longer & more famous but not <br/>
nearly so straight 49th parallel caus line would get cobbled together<br/>
<br/>
