At this point on State Trust Land the rancher lessee has established a cattle corral and watering tank so access is a challenge. The cap reads, U.S. General Land Office Survey - 1914 Penalty $250 for Removal On the south side of the centering cross hairs is S18 on each side while the north side, although badly scratched, appears to be S12 on each side. The pipe protrudes about 6 inches above ground level and it is used to anchor barbed wire. The marker is located approximately .99 miles south of the southern edge of U.S. 60, following the alignment of the abandoned Barkley Road, and 1.06 miles west of the southern edge of the U.S. 60 at an angle of 90 degrees.
