The document notation appears on the title-page of each volume, but other title
pages without such notation, and with imprint dates differing from that on the
first title-page, appear throughout the set, indicating that portions of volumes
were issued prior to the completed volume.

W7.16: Engineer School

[After the Civil War, the post at Willets Point, N. Y., constituted the regular Engineer School of Application for the engineer service. By General orders 63, 1897, the school was designated the United States Engineer School; by General orders 155, 1901, the Engineer School of Application; by General orders 115, 1904, the Engineer School. It was originally located at the fort at Willets Point, afterwards named Fort Totten, but was transferred in 1901 to Washington Barracks, Washington, D. C., at which place it is now located. Early reports of the school are made by the commanding officer of the Battalion of Engineers. See, for early historical information, Occasional papers 14 (W7.162:14).]

GEOGRAPHICAL SURVEYS WEST OF 100th MERID-
IAN (Wheeler)

[This work was the outgrowth of the topographical reconnaissance made by George M. Wheeler in 1869. Wheeler's plans for geographical surveys west of the 100th meridian, being approved by the Secretary of War, were adopted by Congress and appropriations were made for the work from 1872 to 1879, when the Geological Survey (I 19.) was established, taking up the field work of this and other surveys. Wheeler's office was continued until Feb. 29, 1884, its work being the preparation and publication of the reports. See, for history and publications of Geographical Surveys West of 100th Meridian, Final report, v. 1 (W8.5:1), and for catalogue and index of publications, Geological Survey Bulletin 222 (I 19.3:222). See, for Report upon 3d International Geographical Congress and Exhibition at Venice, Italy, 1881, by Wheeler, W7.5:W 56.]
