GENTLEMEN:—In accordance with instruc- tions received from your honorable body I llavemade auexamnination of the ditch' or drain commonly known as the "Mud Creak Drain" commencing at the• line between lots 11 and 12 it the lOth concession in the Township of Stephen and extending norfh-' arty across lots 11 to 15 both inclusive .in the 10th Con, of the Township of Stephen and from lot it South to lot 5 tax con to both. in- clusive and from lot 6 con, to South through Iots 4 con. 8 both 100103ive con. 111ot 2o 8 B Stephen and across lee 20 in the N Belly, con, of the Township of McGillivray and across lots 3 4 and 6 in con.11. In making au examination I find that the drain above described is for thorn est part in a very bad condition having flied in consid- erably since originally constructed and be- ing altogether tee small 11.1 capacity to con- vey the water from the lands above described and that flowing upon them from'the higher lands above, much to the damage of adjoin- ing lands and roads. I also find that in order to obtain a proper eutlot in the Township of McGillivray it will also be necessary to deepen, widen and strengthen the creek from the present outlet across lots 3,4, and Sin the 15th concession of the said Township and that the adjoining, lands would he more or less improved. 'have made the necessary .survey of the above work and have staked it out and have taken levels, commencing at the line be- tween lots 11 and 12 in the 10th concession as shown on plan, hereto attached, placing stakes along edge of drain twe chainsor eight rod's apart and taking levels at same and in bottom of ditch, where no change fn course is necessary throughout. The stakes are numbered o, 2, 4, G, etc., and the levels are taken on the ground beside the same. In the assessment I have endeavoured to distinguish between the higher and outlying lands and the adjacent and lower lands orbital' will evidently receive the greater ben- efit sh o s lie dotted blue lines on plan attached w approximately the outline of low or wamplands using the drain for outlet, In the accompanying Profile the cutin feet nd decimals ofa foot are shown at each sta- ion of 8 rods aldo the depth of earth to be aken from the bottom of the ditch which tvi11 also require to be widened somewhat. Where the drain passes through timbered ands the trees to be felled and alllogs and rushwood to be removed so lar from the dgo of the ditch that none may bo covered y the earth excavated. The earth to be brown out 3 feet clear of the edges of the itch and so equally as possible on both sides f same and spread ••o a depth not exceeding 1 foot unless otherwise ordered by the En- gineer or Inspector In charge of the work. Whenever the drain leaves the old channel of Creek at any crooked place for the pur- pose of streightening the same and imerov- rng the flow of water, the earth excavated to nee llesaandnwh nsever trron acticableetlheOCon- tractor should dump the earth into the sam e at all low runs Band be suflicentpintebank vals throughout.

He was a native of Altd'rnon Parish, Cornwall, England, and came to Canada on the ship Daid- Iess, of Padstow, Captain Nicholas, in 1848, staying for one year with Mr. Wilmot, of Clarke Township, and after- wards came up to - the Huron track and worked as head teamster for Mr. James Pickard, of Exeter, for twenty- six months. He' then settled on the third lot, third concession, of Usborne, and soon afterwards married Rebecca, eldest daughter of James Brown, Esq., then of Bidciulpb. He hewed out of the forest a most comfortable home,. and. lived there until 14 years ago he sold his farm and retired in Exeter. He always enjoyed the best of good health until .1a, grippe took a fast hold on him, and sett]ed on 'the bronchial tubes an'd heart with such seyerity that no medi- cal skill could do anything to bring about his recovery. He was popular with every person, and his familiar figure will be missed by many. He was a meniber of James Street Metho- dist Church for many years. and was ever attentive to church, very seldom• missing his class or church. He was all his life a liberal Reformer (and al- ways respected the fair political ideas set forth by the London FREE PR.Bss, of which he was cue of the oldest sub- scribers.) His family consisted of Mary who died in 1880,and Mrs C W. Welsh of Usborne, and Samuel A, of Exeter.
