falls were also encountered, these giving drops of 3 ft,, 18 ft., 31 ft., and 30 ft. 

 respectively. This stream is available for power development, the most promising 

 place being at the thirty ft. fall mentioned above, this being in lot 1, concession 

 5. There is a wagon road leading from this falls to the town of Dorion on the 

 Canadian Pacific Eailway. I have shown on my plan and traverse plan reserva- 

 tions for power "Sevelopment in concession 5, lots 1 and 3, and in concession 6, 

 lot 3, these adjoining the most favorable power sites on the river.

Signs of deer were quite plentiful throughout the township, as were also signs 

 of moose, notafcly in the northerly part of the township. Eabbit and partridge'

 part. The lakes, as mentioned above, were well stocked with fish, trout being very 

 plentiful as well as pike. Wolf river, in particular proved to be a good trout 

 stream.

As instructed the north boundary of the tovniship was re-run and chained,
