By County's
NewBoundary
LEESBURG, Va., June 7
(Spl.).-The Loudoun County
Supervisors today approved a
true boundary between Fairfax
and Loudoun Counties that
runs directly through the Fairfax School for Negroes.
But Attorney Wilbur C. Hall,
representing Loudoun County
interests in settling thetrue
boundary, said, "The two counties will reach an adjustment
without difficulty."
The boundary was set up by
a commission headed by R. J.
Wagstaff, of Herndon, and corresponds roughly to the line
separating the two counties as
established in 1897.
Hall said it was necessary
for accurate survey purposes
to run the true boundary
through the Negro high school,
leaving it equally divided between the two counties.
The cost to each county for
establishing the line will be
approximately $3000. The true
line approved today needs to
be approved by Fairfax County before presentation by both
county commissioners to circuit judges of both counties for
approval and adoption.
The true line extends from
Seneca on the Potomac to Bull
Run on the Prince William
line, a distance of 18.36 miles.
The counties will retain about
the same acreage, with Loudoun acquiring about 1200
acres near the southern end
and Fairfax about the same
acreage at the northern end.
