"In 136 4, an adventurous Canadian boy with companions went up through Lake Simcoe, overland to Gravenhurst, —now a pla, o of over 2,000 inhabi- tants with large lumber and manufao- turing interests, then a hamlet of a few houses and an Indian trading point—and in an old sailing craft, with her captain for guide, sailed along and encamped nail they reached the head of Lake J osepb. Nu white Was were seen along the shores. The Moron Indians held sway. It was their happy pleasure preserve. The Vicinity of Indian river between Lakes Muskoka and Rosseau was their heat- ing ground. The beauty of the ►+ur- rouodirtgS charmed the young wail Aad his friends and they made several pilgrimages. Year by year the num- ber of Indians decreased until at present only a few are fouud at Bala. The young man married and visited the islands, the woods, the mountains and the seashore. Nowhere did he r.nd the refreshing. rough and rugged life that so appealed to hiiu in his earlier lays and so he returned to his tree love in Lake Joseph, and that .is host W. 13. MLMurrich, Q.C., of Toronto, comes. to have. the choicest .pubs in that beautiful lake.

It was supposed ,y Mr. Gregory's friends that he would goo -to England to spend the remainder of his life, but after a few months' stay be returned to the Muskoka, saying that he could not to content away from the scenes so dear to him, scenes iiet duplicated, so far as he could learn, in old world countries. He has since avowed his intention never to leave Muskoka. •. The lakes are situated 80U feet above sea level, 300 feet above Lake Ontariv and over 200 feet above Lake Superior. The air is dry, pure, light, pine -laden, bracing, but not over -exhilarating. Towns- - do not inyade the shores and Sunday quie) eve: ywhere prevails. • Mtjkoka's waters hold fish for tboea who enjoy such sport, and her woods ganie for the huntsman. Bass, pickerel, and salmon abound in the lakes se well as other lake fish, and the trout streams in the interior give up their beauties because they a re seldom fished.
