106 REPORT OF THE No. 3 



The soil is well adapted for agricultural purposes, being clay, and several 

 of the lots have already been settled on and small clearances made. 



Fire has run through the district and destroyed the timber on the high 

 land, and the only green timber is in the spruce swamps, except a portion on the 

 east boundary, lots twelve and thirteen. Concession "A," and on the west bound- 

 ary of lots twenty-eight to thirty-two, Concession "B." 



The road along the southerly limit of Concessions "A" and "B" has been 

 opened and graded, also road between original lots eighteen and nineteen from 

 the southerly limit of township northerly as far as the Abitibi River. 



Accompanying this report are plan, field notes and accounts, all of which 

 I trust will be found complete and satisfactory. 



I have the honour to be, Sir, 



Your obedient servant, 



G. P. Angus, 



Ontario Land Surveyor. 



The Honourable the Minister of Lands and Forests, 

 Toronto, Ontario. 



Appendix No. 37. 

 Township Outlines in District of Sudbury. 



Peterborough, Ont., October 23rd, 1922. 



Sir, — I beg to report that, agreeably to your instructions dated April 12th, 

 1922, to survey certain township outlines in the district of Sudbury, I have 

 completed this work and beg to submit herewith my plans, field notes and report, 

 all of which I trust will be found complete and satisfactory. 



The survey was commenced at an iron post planted by myself in 1916, to 

 mark the intersection of the line between concessions four and five in the Town- 

 ships of Hall and Jofifre with the line between these townships. After a delay 

 of a few days at this point in getting an astronomical observation, the line 

 between the Townships of Hall and Joffre was produced south to O.L.S. Patten's 

 base line and from the sixth, twelfth, eighteenth and twenty-fourth mile points. 

 Lines were run due west on six-mile chords to O.L.S. Niven's base line. My 

 meridian six miles west of my first meridian was run due south from a point 

 six miles west of the southeast angle of the township of Hall to O.L.S. Patten's 

 base line. Wooden posts made of the most durable wood in the locality, and 

 at least six inches square and three feet high, were planted at the end of every 

 mile, excepting when that point fell in a river or lake, in which case the post 

 was planted on the line at the nearest shore. At the end of every third mile, 

 where possible, the iron posts supplied by your Department were planted and 

 pits and mounds made according to Department instructions. Where it was 

 not possible to plant these posts at the exact points, they were planted accord- 

 ing to instructions and witness mounds and trenches made.
