In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.

A PROCLAMATION.
Whereas it is provided by section 24 of an act approved March 3, 1891, entitled “An act to repeal timber-culture laws, and for other purposes”—
That the President of the United States may from time to time set apart and reserve in any State or Territory having public land bearing forests, in any part of the public lands wholly or in part covered with timber or undergrowth, whether of commercial value or not, as public reservations; and the President shall by public proclamation declare the establishment of such reservations and limits thereof.
Now, therefore, I, Benjamin Harrison, President of the United States, by virtue of the power in me vested, do hereby make known and proclaim that there has been and is hereby reserved from entry or settlement and set apart for a public forest reservation all that tract of land situate in the State of Wyoming contained within the following-described boundaries:
Beginning at a point on the parallel of 44 deg. 50’ where said parallel is intersected by the meridian of 110 deg. west longitude; thence due east along said parallel to the meridian of 109 deg. 30’ west longitude; thence due south along said meridian to the forty-fourth parallel of north latitude; thence due west along said parallel to its point of intersection with the west boundary of the State of Wyoming; thence due north along said boundary line to its intersection with the south boundary of the Yellowstone National Park.
Warning is hereby expressly given to all persons not to enter or make settlement upon the tract of land reserved by this proclamation.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.
