it derided all claims as to the exceptional 

 value of that property, but now that the

 itary district, has appealed to the city 

 council special parks commission to aid 

 in a movement to make a park of Peter- 

 son's woods, which he greatly admires, 

 and preserve them as a natural beauty 

 spot. The commission received the 

 suggestion favorably and will send the 

 communication to the city council with 

 a recommendation that it be referred to

 the purpose of obtaining the passage of 

 a bill necessary for the addition of an- 

 other park district to Chicago 's preserves. 



After mentioning the manner in which 

 the woods had attracted his attention dur- 

 ing the surveys of the course of the north 

 shore channel through their midst, Mr. 

 McCormick wrote: 



* ' These are the only natural woods left 

 in Chicago. Because of the natural beauty 

 of this place we have removed the excava-

tions from the channel and have left no 

 spoil banks. The land is fairly low, so 

 there will be only from seven to ten 

 feet of bank above the water's edge. It 

 appears that this land should be set aside 

 for park purposes, and, indeed, that the 

 rest of the old woods should be incor* 

 porated in a district with it." 



In his desired action, according to Mr. 

 McCormick 's letter, the council will have 

 the support of both the Lincoln park and 

 the West park boards, either one of 

 which would have taken the initiative in 

 the matter had it not been believed that 

 the territory was outside both! jurigdic* 

 tions.
