These monuments shall be placed at outer boundaries or turning points, said points to be not less twenty (20) feet back from the bank of any river or stream, except that when such corners or points fall within a street, or proposed future street, the monuments shall be placed in the side line of the street.

(e) All such monuments shall be set flush with the ground and planted in such a manner that they will not be removed by frost.
