FOREST COMMISSIONERS REPORT. 87 



D. H. Lambert, Seboomook territory, West Branch of Penob- 

 scot — In the Spring I found that owing to lumbering operations 

 the telephone line had been badly damaged and necessitated 

 the building of a new one, one mile in length. I repaired the 

 lookout stations and put new roofing on Green Mt. camp. 



Thomas Griffin, Lower Lakes Territory, West Branch Wa- 

 ters — We built a camp on the summit of Jo Mary Mountain and 

 put telephone in same. As the telephone line to this station 

 did not work well on account of running close to another line 

 from Xorcross to Perkins Siding we set this back into the 

 woods and have had a good working line since. All property 

 of the State in this section in good shape. 



C. H. Buswell, southern part of Forestry District in Piscata- 

 quis County — Five miles of new line was constructed from B 

 Pond to Charles Berry's camps at Yoke Pond. A new cabin for 

 the watchman was built at Boarstone Mt. 



J. B. Rosignol, South end of East Branch of Penobscot — I 

 have fixed the road so that I can drive within one-half mile 

 of the lookout station used by the patrolmen. I have repaired 

 an old lumbering telephone line from this lookout to Whetstone 

 Falls on the East Branch. 



John E. Mitchell, L T pper East Branch W'aters — I have built 

 one and one-half miles of telephone line from the. Lincoln Pulp 

 Wood Company's line to lookout station on Pogey Mountain. 

 I have also built four miles of line up Hay Brook to patrolman's 

 camp. 



Edwin C. Mooers, Mattamiscontis, Seboeis, and Schoodic 

 Lake territory — At the first of the season we found the line 

 running from Ingalls Siding to Mattamiscontis Mountain in 

 very bad shape caused by lumbering operations of the winter 

 before, and by this careless and needless work it cost the State 

 as much to repair as it would a new line, however, this was 

 repaired and good connection established. The cabin on Ragged 

 Mountain was burned during the early spring, cause unknown, 

 but presume it was fishermen or hunters, leaving a fire in the 

 small' stove. A new cabin, T2 x 14 was built. The telephone 

 line to Ragged Mt. was also put in first class shape. 



George G. Nichols, Somerset county west of Moosehead 

 Lake — The Attean Mountain tower has been lined with matched 

 boards and painted on the outside. The trail was kept in good
