Commentary:
The elevation is drwan rather high on the sheet, extending beyond the grid lines of the graph paper to the extreme edge of the sheet. For this reason, it was necessary to draw the chimney on a separate piece of paper which was then affixed to the top of the sheet. The floor plans on this study for Pavilion I are virtually identical to the ones Jefferosn prepared for Pavilion V. (JML)
