THE CANADIAN HANDBOOK AND TOURIST'S GUIDE. INTRODUCTION. The Nooks and Corners of Canada, and. more especially of the Lower Province, in addition to the interest they awaken as important sources of Commercial and Agricultural wealth, are invested with no ordinary attraction for the Naturalist, the Antiquary, the Historian, and the Tourist in quest of pleasure or of health. We have often wondered why more of the venturesome spirits amongst our transatlantic friends do not tear themselves away, even for a few months, from London fogs, to visit our distant but more favoured clime. How is it that so few, comparatively speaking, come to enjoy the bracing air and bright summer skies of Canada ? With what zest could the enterprising or eccentric among them undertake a ramble, with rod and gun in hand, from Niagara to Labrador, over the Laurentian Chain of Moun- tains, choosing as rallying points, whereat to compare notes, the summit of Cape Eternity in the Saguenay district, and 6 Introduction.

PREFACE In this admirable book the Rev. Dr. Maclean has done a piece of work of far-reaching significance. The Doctor is well fitted by training, experience, knowledge and sym- pathy to do this work and has done it in a manner which fully vindicates his claim to all these qualifications. Our beloved Canada is just emerging into a vigorous consciousness of nationhood and is showing herself worthy of the best ideals in her conception of what the hig'hest nationality really involves. It is therefore of the utmost importance that the young of this young nation thrilled with a new sense of power, and conscious of a new place in the activities of the world, should understand thoroughly those factors and forces which have so strikingly combined to give us our present place of prominence.

    • CHAPTER I The Georgian Bay and Great Lakes Survey, 1883-1903 THE GEORGIAN BAY SURVEY UNDER STAFF COMMANDER J.G. BOULTON, RN, 1883-1893 CANADA'S FIRST HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEYOR John George Boulton, was in his forty-first year, and had served in the Royal Navy some twenty-six years before coming to Canada in 1883 to commence the resurvey of Georgian Bay. Born in England 29 November 1842, he was in the RN before his fifteenth birthday. In December 1857, he was a master assistant to Capt. H.C. Otter, RN, HMS Porcupine, Survey of the West Coast of Scotland. In 1858 Capt. Otter was sent to Newfoundland where he took part in survey operations in connection with the laying of the first Atlantic cable in Bull's Arm, Trinity Bay. When the Australian Colonial Survey was formed in 1860, it was placed under Commander H.L. Cox, RN, HM Steam Frigate Curacoa, with headquarters at Victoria. Master Assistant Boulton was then posted to this station where he remained until 1867. On 6 December 1863 he was successful in "Passing in Seamanship" and was then reappointed second master HMS Eclipse on this station. Before the month of December ended, he held this rank in HMS Curacoa, with the proviso "additional for Surveying Duties." During the Maori War in the Pacific Ocean, Second Master Boulton was detached from the Australian Survey for special work in New England. When the Admiralty oceanographic vessel HMS Challenger was in Australia during her world cruise, Second Master Boulton had the honour of being enlisted as one of her officers, from 1 October 1866 to June 1867 and as usual, additional for surveying duties.
