Gulquac Lake. About the same as Milpagos, or a little less. A single 
measurement checked by comparison with Fredericton gave 1,328 feet, 
an excellent agreement, — say 1,330 feet. 
Grays Lake, 20 feet above Milpagos, hence 1,353 feet. A single measurement 
checked by comparison with Fredericton gave 1,389 feet,— say 1,370 feet. 
Meri thews Lake, 20 feet above Grays, hence 1,390 feet. 
Indian Lake, 15 feet above Merithews, hence 1,405 feet. 
Trout Lake, 50 feet above Indian, hence 1,455 feet. A single measurement 
checked from Fredericton gave 1,438 feet, — say 1,445 feet. 
Furbish Pond, 25 feet above Trout Lake, hence 1,470 feet. 
Long Lake, mean of six measurements, 1,256 feet. 
Island or Milnagek Lake, by direct aneroid measurement, 265 feet above Long, 
hence 1,521 feet. A direct measurement checked from Fredericton gave 
1,495 feet. As the six measurements must be given more weight than 
the one of Milnagek, we can place the height at about 1,510 feet. This 
makes it the highest lake of any size in the Province of New Brunswick. 
The crest of the ridge separating Long and Little Southwest Miramichi Lake 
is 475 feet above Long Lake, and hence 1,731 feet. 
Third Lake. One measurement checked from Fredericton gave 1,248 feet. 
The fall from Long Lake must be at least 10 feet, hence the above must 
be about correct. 
Crest of the ridge on the portage from Third Lake to First Beaver Pond, 260 
feet over Third Lake, and hence 1,508 feet. 
First Beaver Pond, 160 feet over Third Lake, hence 1,408 feet. A direct 
measurement checked from Fredericton gave 1,428 feet, — say 1,418 feet. 
Second Beaver Pond is a few feet above Portage Lake, hence say 1,275 feet. 
Portage Lake, mean of three measurements, 1,268 feet. Its relation with 
Adder Lake would seem to show that this is considerably too low. 
Adder Lake stands considerably above Portage Lake, — say 50 feet, hence 1,323 
feet. A measurement checked from Fredericton gave 1,327 feet. As 
this lake is, however, at least 10 feet higher than Serpentine, into which 
it flows, we must assign to it a greater height than the above figures 
signify,— say 1,350 feet. 
Second Adder or Hind Lake, 100 feet above Adder, and hence 1,450 feet. 
Third Adder or Mclnnes Lake, 15 feet over Hind Lake, hence 1,465 feet. 
Serpentine Lake, mean of two measurements, 1,350 feet. The heights for 
Adder and Serpentine are inconsistent, as Adder flows into Serpentine 
by a swift broken stream. Hence we must lessen somewhat the height 
of Serpentine (despite the fact that Mclnnes makes it 1,460 feet), and 
we may call it 1,340 and Adder 1,350 feet. 
Stillwater, mean of six measurements, 1,212 feet. 
As this paper is in press, I have received Mr. Furbish’s heights, obtained 
independently by him from his own aneroid, but checked by the same Freder- 
icton readings used by me. He makes Trowsers as a mean of six readings.
