THE BEAVERS OF BEAVER CREEK 



All that remains to mark the memory of the 

 once prosperous city of dome-shaped lodges 

 and dams is the name of the creek and the little 

 town upon its bank. But the proceeds from the 

 pelts of the thousands and thousands of others 

 of this wise and ancient family have been the 

 foundation of the wealth that built some of the 

 finest buildings in the great metropolis, erected 

 not by nature's simple builders, but by the 

 master hand and mind of man.
