investigations of these have been made by the Hydro-Electric Power Commission 

 in 1913 and previously and more definite information than we can furnish could 

 be obtained from them. 



Very few indications of game were noticed as the country has been hunted 

 and trapped over for many years. The lakes are not well stocked with fish 

 though some lake trout were caught in Hawk Lake. It might be advisable to 

 stock One Island, Florence and Hawk Lakes with trout as they covdd be made 

 \ery attractive grounds for fishing.

 Department dated September 30th, 1919, we have completed the survey of that 

 portion of Dog Lake lying north of the Township of Fowler, in the District of 

 Thunder Bay, and a meridian line across same. 



The traverse of Dog Lake was carried on in the winter months but a portion 

 of the meridian was run in October last. 



This lake is about thirty miles north-west of the City of Port Arthur. Tlie 

 route to it is via Dawson Eoad, thence along the boundary line betwee-n the 

 Townships of Ware and Gorham to Trout Lake, thence north-westerly along a tote 

 road to One Island Lake and then by canoe through One Island Lake and Hawk 

 Lake. There is a winter road through Fowler Township to the bay of Dog 

 Lake which enters lots nine and ten, concession six. 



The survey of the meridian was commenced at the north-west corner of 

 lot twelve, concession six, Township of Fowler, and from this point a meridian 

 was run north astronomically across the various points of land and bays to the 

 last intersection with the northerly margin of the lake. This line was all chained 

 in the winter and posted according to instructions. 



The traverse of the lake was commenced at the intersection of the north 

 boundary of the Township of Fowler with the high water mark in lot thirteen, 

 Concession six. Township of Fowler. Trees were marked at intervals of about
