Roblee Brook . — This is not a good stream, because the lower portion is 
dry in summer. It runs through the village of North Creek and is a 
strong stream most of the year. In 1888 it had 50,000 fry, but I would 
not recommend it for future stocking. There is another brook by this 
name which comes into North Creek. 
North Greek . — This is a good stream. It has a dam and a tannery at 
its mouth, in the village of the same name. It directly received:

"by the residents in recommending it.
