county; Phillipi about the same distance in Freestone; Hava’s store about 500 
yards in Navarro; Birdston about one mile in Navarro, and Winkler about 200 
yards in Freestone.  One house was found to be exactly on the line, which was
Mr. Hazzard Anderson’s who will claim his citizenship in Freestone.
