The town of Hope surveyed by the Royal Engineers and drawn by Meade. The town itself has numbered plots of land, streets, reserves, a public square, a jail, court house, H.B.C. fort, a saw mill, and a cemetery. The town is located between the Fraser and Coquihalla Rivers and the map includes relief marks, notes about the levels of water at different times of the year, and a trail leading to waterfalls. Named features include Maria Island, Hope Creek, Croft Island, and Greenwood Island. There are notes indicating that this map is for general information and it is non-official as regards to property and that the lines of roads and streets are not to be assumed as positively determined.
