Abbot, Corps of Topographical Engineers Upon Explorations for a Railroad Route, From the Sacramento Valley to the Columbia River If you should not require the services of all your party, for this latter duty, you will direct such of your assistants as will not be wanted for the field, to proceed to Washington, with Lieut. Abbot, and under his direction prepare the maps and reports or you may direct Lieut. Abbot, aided by the geologist and civil engineer, or such assistants as may be necessary, to make the examination, proceeding yourself to Washington with the other assistants. The geological information is considered especially valuable in determining the character of the country, the nature of the difficulties to be encountered, and the quality and extent of the building materials to be found. Your attention will be directed to the botany and natural history of the country, and to such other objects as tend to illustrate its present and future conditions.
