This is the final state of Bellin's definitive map of eastern Canada and New England showing the mouth of the St. Lawrence, the length of the river, the Maritime provinces and French claims in the region. There are some very interesting details of the coastal towns, showing Havre de Baston for Boston Harbor, up the coast to Portsmouth in New Hampshire, Wells, York and Cape Elizabeth in Maine. There is considerable information shown on the extent of French exploration in the region. In this state, Bellin updated the plate with changes to the Saint Lawrence River, Lake Ontario and Cape Code. A large decorative cartouche incorporates two distance scales.
