Appendix No. 23a. 



Survey of a Piece of Land West of Mowat and South of the Henvey 



Inlet Indian Reseeve. 



Township of Henvey^ 

 Parry Sound, July 26th, 1912. 



Sir, — I have the honour to report that under your instructions I have located 

 the several settlers on Still River and vicinity in the unsurveyed land west of 

 the township of Mowat and north of the township of Wallbridge. I interviewed 

 every settler who claimed a location on Still River and had improvements made, 

 and adjusted their boundaries agreeably between them with the exception of W. 

 Gavin (on lot 8 as shown on plan) sometimes called Bedor and commonly known 

 as Wild Cat, who claims a part of lot 3 on the south side of Still River in what 

 I hafve called Con. B, as well as a part of lot 7 extending along what is known 

 as Little Still River, but from all the information I could get, I decided that 

 what I have blocked out as lot 8 is all that he is entitled to and possibly a little 

 more. 



I made a careful traverse of Still River and located the posts which I planted 

 between the several lots in both Cons. A and B therefrom as is shewn on my plan 

 and field notes. 



I ran concession lines II and III west from the west iboundary of Mowat to 

 S. R. 10/11 and said S. R. south to the Wallbridge boundary. I then ran S. R. 

 5/6 northward to the Indian Reserve through Cons. Ill, IV, V, VI and VII and 

 ran concession lines III, and IV and V and concession line VI and VII each 

 across the first ten lots west of Mowat. I did not run S. R. 10/11 through con- 

 cessions III, IV, V and VI because entirely unfit for settlement, the country 

 being rocky ridges timbered with scrub jack pine. The country along the Canadian 

 Pacific Railway up to the Indian Reserve is good land for two or three lots on 

 each side. 



I have the honour to be, 



Sir, 



Your obedient servant, 



(Sgd.) David Beatty, 



Ontario Land Surveyor. 



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