Monument No. 40 (stone), view to the west, marking the U.S.-Mexico
boundary. At the intersection of the parallel and meridian near
Carrizalillo Spring. Photograph by D. R. Payne, 1893-94. In 1857, the
boundary between the United States and Mexico was surveyed and mon-
uments marking it were erected. Only a few decades later, the line
was in dispute, and in 1891 a second U.S.-Mexico commission began
work re-surveying the boundary, and, where necessary, erecting new
markers. Joseph Richard Werne's article, "Redrawing the Southwestern
Boundary, 1891-1896," begins on page 1 of this issue. Photograph repro-
duced by J. Robert Willingham of Southeast Missouri State University, from
Report of the Boundary Commission upon the Survey and Re-marking
of the Boundary between the United States and Mexico . . . Album,
55th Cong., 2nd sess., 1898, S. Ex. Doc. 247 (Ser. 3613)-
