South boundary section twenty-five now original to intersection, three 

 chains twenty-three links too long. 



South boundary section twenty-six now intersection to original post 

 fifty-five links too short, I followed the original line south along the Gov- 

 ernment road and found original posts at the southeast corner section twenty- 

 two, and one-quarter section fifteen. These posts are all on line of road run- 

 ning east astronomically of section fifteen, twenty-two, twenty-seven and 

 thirty-four, showing that the original line ran through, although in wrong 

 position. 



I next proceeded to join up one-quarter section post on east boundary 

 section thirty-five, planted from original bearing tree to correct position 

 post between sections thirty-five and thirty-six. This line runs for twenty 

 chains across cleared and ploughed land in northwest one-quarter thirty-six. 



I then joined up original post at southeast angle section thirty-four to 

 post at northeast angle planted in true position from original bearing tree. 

 This line passes directly through large frame house owned by D. Anderson 

 on the north half of southwest one-quarter section thirty-five, also run across 

 twenty chains of cleared and ploughed land on northwest one-quarter. 



I then ran from post planted from original bearing tree at northeast 

 angle section thirty-three to post at correct position from original bearing 

 tree between the northeast and southeast one-quarter sections. On this line 

 I found the chainage to creek to differ approximately five chains from that 

 given in original notes, another proof that the line was never run. 



I then proceeded to one-quarter section post on the north boundary sec- ' 

 tion thirty-two and chained west to the township boundary. I could not 

 find the original post or bearing tree at the corner, the land having been 

 cleared this summer, but I obtained affidavits from two parties stating that 

 its position was at the intersection of original lines, now fenced. This 

 position I can also certify to; as I have personally chained along the Dilke 

 boundary from the post following the old line. I did not place any one- 

 quarter section post or section post on section thirty-one as I am informed 

 that the parties owning these lands can give affidavits shewing that the sec- 

 tion post (northeast section thirty-one) was at the intersection of the north 

 and south line which runs direct across from Morley and Patullo and that 

 the one-quarter section post on north boundary thirty-one was distant forty 

 chains from said section post. I however show on plan the distance divided 

 proportionately. 



Having completed the work so far in Morley I proceeded to retrace and 

 chain lines in Patullo, I found everything in the township to be correct as 

 far as I went, agreeing with the original field notes. 



The foregoing gives the result of this survey, more work would be neces- 

 sary to completely straighten the original work but in view of the fact that 

 according to my instructions no extensive re-survey was wanted and also of 

 the fact that the municipality of Chappie is preparing a petition to the Gov- 

 ernment to have some work done which will enable them to keep roads, etc. 

 in their present position, also to ascertain the correct acreages of the one- 

 quarter sections for assessment purposes, I have not proceeded further than 

 indicated on my plan. 



I have the honour to be. Sir, 



Your obedient servant, 



(Signed) D. J. Gillon, 



Ontario Land Surveyor. 

 The Honourable, The Minister of Lands, Forests and Mines, 



Toronto.
