having been washed away, The part left is now a confused mass of poles and sticks, At a number of places along the bank of the creek in the meadow were evidences of old burrows principally when bends of the creek touched the hillside, The mouths of their burrows have mostly fallen in and show as little sign of the creek side, The timber cut was mostly willow, alder and buckwheat, but I saw one small hemlock that had been felled and jelled where it fell. Mr. Hasselborg caught a beaver near Pleasant Bay a few days ago and brought it to us in the flush, and Dixon has it jumpard, It is very much the darkest beaver I ever saw, and seems to have a short tail in proportion to its breadth, We saw some yellow cedar and also a pine that Hasselborg calls "Jack Pin", It is similar to Pines contorta of the Sierra Nevada in appearance, but the cones appear to me to be smaller, Then were some willows in the meadow, They were in bloom, The all. of the meadow must be only 400 to 500 ft.
