John Clarke was chief factor OF the
Hudson's Bay company for many
years until his death in 1852. His
daughter IN 1906 published a brief
series of pages from his notebooks.
David Goule. one of Mr. Clarke's STAFF,
thus reported to him regarding
beavers:
II started with a trap for Beaver
Pond about three miles from Fort Will
liam lat the head of Lake SUPERIOR.
II was early winter with only six
inches of snow upon the ground. When
| got within a hundred yards Of the
pond. the snow began to look as If II
had been trodden firmly down. and
was covered with a coating of ice.
Stumps and small bushes protruded in
every direction. and we're cut of close
to the ground as neatly as if with a
knife. Previous to the freezing over
of the pond, the beavers cut down very
small brush close by, and dragged it to
the waters edge, where they fastened
il to the bottom OF the water, to serve
as provisions during the winter. All
birch trees, too. on the edge OF the
pond are cut down so as to fall into
the river. They also serve as provi-
sions. The instinct OF beavers in
choosing and cutting down the trees
is wonderful. 1t is rare to see tree
