108 REPORT OF THE No. 3 



12 and Joffre. The original notes for this point show a wooden post and a gas 

 pipe planted, but the gas pipe had disappeared, the wooden post and a cairn of 

 stones remaining, as was the case on the opposite side of the railway and at all 

 other points with one exception, where the original notes showed a wooden post 

 and gas pipe. From this post we ran north astronomically between the Town- 

 ship of Joffre and Township 12, and continued north astronomically between 

 the Township of Carew and the Township of Alcona to the south boundary of 

 the Township of Fingal, which boundary had been run by us in 1920. 



Again, starting at a post planted by E. Stewart in 1891 on the northeasterly 

 side of the Canadian Pacific Railway between the Townships of Joffre and 

 Carew, we ran east astronomically between those two townships to our meridian 

 line and continued thence east astronomically between Township Number 12 

 and Alcona to the southerly production of the west boundary of the Township 

 of Smuts, which boundary had been run by us the previous year. Producing 

 the said west boundary of the Township of Smuts we ran south astronomically 

 between the Township of Biskotasi and Township Number 12 to a point, where 

 we established the southeast angle of Township 12 due east astronomically from 

 the northeast angle of Township Number 10, which we found marked by a wooden 

 post in a stone cairn planted by E. Stewart in 1891. This completed our work 

 on the north side of the Canadian Pacific Railway. We then proceeded to the 

 southwest angle of Township 12, which had also been established by Mr. Stewart 

 in 1891, but as this country had been burned over since 1891, we found it neces- 

 sary to run a line south astronomically the distance shown on Mr. Stewart's original 

 field notes from the post we had already found between the Township of Joffre 

 and Township Number 12 on the north side of the Canadian Pacific Railway, 

 and after searching nearly half a day we succeeded in finding the original iron 

 post (gas pipe) and the point of the wooden post, though a four or five inch 

 spruce tree had grown exactly on the top of it. From this point we ran south 

 astronomically six miles between Townships 10 and 11, and at this six-mile 

 point we established the adjacent angles of the four Townships 10, 11, Kelso 

 and McPhail. From the same point we ran west astronomically between the 

 Townships of Joffre and Number 11 to the east boundary of the Township of 

 Hall, which was run this summer by O.L.S. Fitzgerald. From the said adjacent 

 angles of the Townships 10, 11, Kelso and McPhail, we ran west astronomically 

 between Township Number 11 and Township of Kelso to the east boundary of 

 the Township of Abney, which was also run this summer by O.L.S. Fitzgerald, 

 east astronomically between Townships Number 10 and McPhail to the west 

 boundary of Township Number 9, run this summer by O.L.S. Gallagher, and 

 south astronomically between Townships of Kelso and McPhail six miles and 

 twenty-seven links, where we established the adjacent angles of the Townships 

 of Kelso, McPhail, Ivy and Earl. From this point we ran west astronomically 

 between the Townships of Kelso and Ivy to the east boundary of the Township 

 of Cortez, which was also run this summer by O.L.S. Fitzgerald, east astronomic- 

 ally between the Townships of McPhail and Earl to the west boundary of Town- 

 ship Number 8, run this summer by O.L.S. Gallagher, and south astronomically 

 between the Townships of Ivy and Earl six miles, where we established the ad- 

 jacent angles of the four Townships, Ivy, Earl, Durban and Jasper, and from this 

 point we ran west astronomically between the Townships of Ivy and Durban 

 to the east boundary of the Township of Ethel, which was also run this summer 

 by O.L.S. Fitzgerald, east astronomically between the Townships of Earl and 

 Jasper to the west boundary of Township Number 6, which was also run this 

 summer by O.L.S. Gallagher, and south astronomically between the Town-
