To take the Plot of a Field at one Sta∣tion, taken in any Angle thereof, from whence all the other Angles may be seen, by help of the Degrees described on the Frame of the Plain-Table, and by mea∣suring from your Station to every of the other Angles.
PLanting your Instrument at G, as aforesaid, direct your Sights to B, as your first Mark, (for the Line G, A, lying under the Meridian Line M, N, must be measured in the last place) noting the Degrees cut by the Index on the Frame of the Table, which suppose 47 Degrees, which must be noted in the first Colum of your Field-Book; then with your Chain measure the distance from your Station at G, to the Angle B, which let be 50 Perches, which place in the third Colum of your Field-Book, according to the former Directi∣ons.
2. Direct your Sights to C, noting the De∣grees there cut, which suppose 88 Degrees, 15 Minutes, which place in the first and second Co∣lums in your Field-Book; then measure the dist∣ance G, C, which let be 60 Perches, and note them in the third Colum of your Field-Book.
3. Direct your Sights to D, the Degrees cut being 120, and the distance G, D, 65 Perches; note these in your Field-Book as aforesaid. And in this manner proceed with the other Marks E, F, and A, and then having noted them all, your col∣lected Notes in your Field-Book will be as fol∣low.
