Eleanor Lake is about three miles long varying in width from ten chains to 

 one-half mile and lies east and west. About a mile easterly down stream is 

 Neshin Lake about one and a half miles long, and lies northeast and southwest; 

 from foot of Neshin Lake the river runs direct north three miles to the head 

 of Opazatika Canyon with easy navigation for canoes. There is a fall twenty- 

 eight feet in about thirty chains, a sort of chute. About two miles north is 

 Indian Signs Falls, a drop of nineteen feet. From here the river runs westerly 

 for about four miles, then turns sharply to the north and runs almost direct 

 north from the point of the Missinaibi River. All this distance the water is 

 swift, consisting of numerous rapids and chutes. About seventeen miles down 

 stream from Indian Signs Falls is Mareva Falls a drop of 27.2 feet. . Breakneck 

 Falls as shown on plan has fifty-three feet of a drop, and is the best falls in the 

 river, but does not appear to be a feasible water power proposition in the near 

 future. Below this point the water is swift, with no marked falls to the Missinaibi 

 River. The last thirty miles of the river are high clay banks from fifty to one 

 hundred feet high. 



There are some very good areas of timber along this river such as poplar 

 to fourteen inches, spruce to twenty-four inches, balsam, birch and cedar. 

 Similar to the Missinaibi River region the country has been fire swept years ago, 

 destroying large tracks of virgin forests which have since grown up to a size to 

 be of merchantable value. Great areas of almost barren land still remain 

 covered only with small poplar. 



I have the honour to be. Sir, 



Your obedient servant,

Appendix No. 22. 

 Survey of Township Outlines, District of Sudbury. 



South Porcupine, Ont., January 23rd, 1922. 



Sir, — I have the honour to submit the following report on the survey of 

 certain township outlines in the District of Sudbury, north of the Canadian 

 Pacific Railway, made by me under instructions from your Department, dated 

 May 5th, 192L 



The survey was commenced at the northwest angle of Township No. 3, 

 as directed in your instructions, and from this point the first meridian was run 

 north astronomically to the southerly limit of the Township of Vrooman, and 

 the second meridian was run north astronomically from the northeast angle of 

 the said Township No. 3, which is also the northwest angle of the Township of 

 Muldrew, to the southerly limit of the Township of Westbrook. 



From the six, twelve and eighteen mile points on this second meridian, base 

 lines were run eastward, as chords of parallels of latitude, to the west limits of 

 the Township of Shelley, Blewett and Hennessy. Between the first and second 

 meridians the base line at the six mile point was run eastward from the first
