longs to this tower was burned up at
Black Creek at the time Of the big
Peggy fire in 1915. We would have to

There would have to be three tee-
phones, one at the Lookout, one for the
Sourdnahunk line to the line of the
Great Northern Paper Company and
one for the Trout Brook line of the
Lincoln Pulpwood Company. An out
fit would have to be bought for this
section. This new lookout would cover
the country as far north as Allagash,
Chamberlain, Eagle Lake and Church
ill. and as far west as the northern
part of Moosehead Lake. By having
this lookout on Center Mountain, it
will not only be a great advantage TO
me, but to other wardens north and
west Of here. On account of its great
height this station will be second to
none in the state. | think q good plan
would be to have a house Oh Grand
