Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Utica City Directory, for 1858-9 The abbreviations and references used in the former editions of the city directory have necessarily been somewhat increased in the present publication, in consequence of an Increased population, de fective numbering of the streets, and a variety of other causes, but will be generally intelligible, and especially when reference 18 made to the following abbreviations z - h, house; res, residence bds, boards n, north e, east s, south; 'w, west; 11 s, north side; e 5, east side; s 53, south side; w s, west side; 1, lot or lots; ab, above; bl, below; on or cor, corner; junct, junction; opp, opposite; clk, clerk. Where the streets are not regularly numbered, it has been gener ally preferred to describe the location, which, it will be seen, has been givenjn a different manner from the descriptions in former editions ofethe directory. For instance. William Haworth's house is located on the south side of South street and the second house west of Miller street. And again-when reference 1s made to a place that 15 west (or any other direction) from some given street, it is understood, in most cases, to be between that street and the next street, parallel to it, in that direction. For example: reference is made to a place on Elizabeth street, east of Genesee street, it is not east of Charlotte, the next street. The exceptions to this rule, In this work, it is believed, are as rare as they were unavoidable. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
