102 REPORT OF THE No. 3 



pleted, all unsightly and leaning trees will have been removed. The road bed along 

 ';he centre will be cleared of all trees, roots, etc., and levelled, leaving a clear drive 

 road of about 16 feet wide. On the upper or southern end where it crosses over a 

 number of sloughs, it was necessary to use a good many of the trees that had to 

 be cut to make the roadway in laying corduroy, which was then covered with marsh 

 grass to a depth of one foot, and the grass in turn was covered heavily with sand 

 and leaf or vegetable mould. To make a permanent drive road, it was necessary 

 to build up these low places above the high water mark in the spring. We expect 

 to have the whole road in condition for traffic this coming season. 



Before closing my report I wish to say that Mr. Orendorf handled the refectory 

 in a satisfactory manner, catering to the wants of the public visitors. 



Mr. Weir, who has the privilege of providing boats, etc., for Park visitors, 

 is kept very busy and is giving satisfaction. 



I have the honour to be. Sir, 



Your obedient servant, 



Isaac Gardiner, 



Park Superintendent.
