NOTE.—The figures under each separate district do not indicate precisely the amount of Stock actually within that particular district, as in some instances the owners of Stock returned the same in the district in which they happened to return their own names, while the Stock, or a portion thereof, might be in a different district. The same explanation is applicable to the return of Crops.

JOHN HISLOP, Enumerator.
