Bound Mark Creek Is an ancient stream that for
rerly bounded some considerable estates, whence
It's name. The creek partially drained the marshy
uplands containing about fve acres that form part
of my Oyster Bay estate. l opened connection with
q dredge that the marshes were drained more
fully. thus turning waste Of marsh land into ser
vceabe and slightly upland. The highway never

used the shore the creek for claiming. De-
cause. account OF It's nlUddiness. scarcely any
clans were to be found there People did not pass
along the shore, where they would have had to
wade perhaps hip deep through the creek, but used
the highway and then struck the beach again 10 the

The town claimed that the creek has always been
passable It elinIrated from It's complaint all ref
