88 KEPOET OF THE ' No. 3 



When running west on the chord between Oscar and Bourinot Townships, 

 we encountered some really good cedar, which has every indication of extending 

 for a considerable distance north and south of the line. 



The burnt area encountered apparently embraces the north-westerly corner 

 of Bourinot Township as shown on the accompanying timber plan. The land 

 apparently rises towards the end of the township and the nine mile post on the 

 Bourinot. Shanly meridian is on an outcrop of Keewatin. 



We encountered no economic minerals whatever, there being only a few scat- 

 tered boulders or low rocky ridges on the Oscar, Bourinot Chord, the Bourinot, 

 Shanly meridian and the Oscar-Maude Chord. 



The land on the west side of the river is generally speaking good clay soil 

 on the higher elevations, with a clay subsoil in the lower and wet places. 



The game in this part of the country is plentiful, there being abundance of 

 moose, bear, beaver and ducks. 



At certain places no iron posts were planted as shown in the field notes 

 iittached hereto, as I had none at my disposal, having used the number sent 

 me for this work. 



Astronomic observations were taken whenever weather conditions would per- 

 mit, the work throughout being carried on under my personal supervision and the 

 foregoing report is respectfully submitted. 



• I have the honour to be, Sir, 



Your obedient servant, 



(Sgd.) N. B. MacRostie, 



Ontario Land Surveyor. 



The Honourable, the Minister of Lands and Forests, 

 Toronto, Ont.
