In leaving Northeast Margaree, the angler will do well to return to 

 Baddeck by way of Whycocomagh, visiting Lake Ainslee on the way. 



Here he will find near the head of the lake a large, deep pool, at one 

 of the inlets, which is in the summer sometimes literally packed with sea 

 trout and salmon. So numerous are the sea trout in this pool that, before 

 it was protected from the attacks of poachers, a single " jig " hook has 

 taken out upward of three barrels in one day.

The steamer to Halifax may be taken, or the train on the Interco- 

 lonial to St. John, N. B., and thence by rail or International boat to 

 Boston. Or, if preferred, the train may be taken to Halifax, from which 

 city the traveler can go to Boston by steamer, or by train via the Domin- 

 ion Atlantic railway to Yarmouth, and thence to Boston by boat. 



By many this last-named route is preferred, for the reason that the 

 journey is through a picturesque and exceedingly interesting portion of 

 the Province, passing as it does through the "Land of Evangeline," the 

 beautiful Cornwallis valley, and the charming stretch of country around 

 the Annapolis and Digby basin.
