D. C , June 17, 1896.

S i r : I beg to transmit herewith the Statistical Atlas of the Eleventh Census.
This work, although appearing nominally under my name as author, is in reality the joint product of many men and many minds.
The vast array of figures from which the maps and diagrams herein presented were made have been drawn from all dep? iments of the
Census.

Although most of the illustrations have been prepared by myself, or under my direction, others have been prepared by

divisions having that special subject in charge.

Classifying the illustrations by subjects and authorship the case will stand as follows :

A ll matters relating to population, with the classification by race, nativity, sex and age, conjugal condition, occupations, illiteracy,
education and religion, the defective, dependent, and delinquent classes, the industries of agriculture, manufactures, and mining have
been prepared by myself; the illustrations relating to mortality have, with two or three exceptions, been prepared under the direction of
Dr. J. S. Billings; those relating to transportation under the direction of Prof. H. C. Adam s; those relating to wealth, debt, and taxation
under the direction of Mr. J. K. Upton, and those relating to mortgage indebtedness under the direction of Mr. G. K. Holmes.
Trusting that this presentation of the results of the Eleventh Census may fulfill its mission in popularizing and extending the
study of statistics, I remain,
V ery respectfully, yours,
H EN R Y GANNETT,
Geographer.
