This Is an important phase of Mr. Benson's business, which has in . recent years rendered him most prominent among land men of the Pacific Coast. His facilities for expediting have been such that in this branch of busines he is prac- tically without a competitor. Mr. Benson s one of the best known citizens of San Francisco. He is a native of Jefferson County, N. Y., and his ear- lier education was received in the publie schools. He was an apt scholar and in mathematics his attalnments were es- pecially noteworthy. He is a graduate of the Warren Collegiate Imstitute of THi- noig, and on his graduation he began the study of clvil engineering, which he sub- sequently adopted as his profession. He served as surveyor of Keokuk County, Iowa, for five years, and at the expiration of his term of offieé he came to this city and established himself with marked suc- cess. Mr. Benson is a genial gentleman, whose personal qualities have endeared him to all his associates. His views on every uestion bearing on land surveys, titles, orest reserve rights and scrip of all de- scriptions are regarded as authoritative, and his counsel is therefore sought by all who are interested in such subjects.
