Relocated on September 6, 1985 "SE7 stands by the bridge which carries Maryland Route 210 over Oxon Hill Run. If this stone has any special claim to fame, it is that it stands closer to more automobile traffic than any of the others." -- Revisiting Washington's Forty Boundary Stones, 1972, Records of the Columbia Historical Society, Vol. 48, 1973.
