Begin at the S.W. corner of the block at the intersection of the N.W. edge of Third Street with the Eastern edge of Gabori Street, where I set a lime stone with its S.W. corner at the S.W. corner of the block; thence N77°10'E along the N.W. edge of Third Street, the S.E. boundary of the block, 416 1/3 feet to the S.E. corner of the block at the intersection of the N.W. edge of Third Street with the western edge of Common Field Street, where I set a lime stone with its S.E. corner at the S.E. corner of the block; thence N2°35'W along the Western edge of Common Field Street, the Eastern boundary of the block, 333 1/4 feet to the N.E. corner of the block at the intersection of the Western edge of Common Field Street with the S.E. edge of 4th Street, being at the old enclosure of the block; thence S81°25'W 436 1/3 feet to the N.W. corner of the block at the intersection of the S.E. edge of 4th Street with the Eastern edge of Gabori Street, where I set a lime stone with it N.W. corner at the N.W. corner of the block; thence S6 1/4°E along the Eastern edge of Gabori Street, the Western boundary of the block, 364 1/3 feet to the beginning. On the top of each of said corner stones I have had a cross made.
