ds G. Tener returned the end of last

in-to-the Babine. country... He told: the

Herald. that he saw-a. country. in. which

‘he ‘would: like to. spend “a good: ‘deal. or

best prospecting. countries in’ ‘the nor-
thern. part, -of -the -province..: -It:18 an

agricultural Land and wonderful atands

Tt is the same bridge that. was to have
