"On tho other Long will present the by congiess to Admiral hand, howover. tho Canadians and many Englishmen hold that the boundary should be drawn 30 miles, or 10 marine leagues, inland from the heaulan Is. By such a construe tion, of course, Lynn canal would be an inlet into Canadian territory, arid 10 marine leagues inland from the head lands at tho entrance would he man miles sonth of Skagway and Dyoa. and hence Canada and England would havo the coveted port of entry without question of doubt. As 1 l ok upon it personally, Lynn canal is a part of th sea or ocean. Thereforo, it would bo unfair to diaw a line 80 miles inland irom the headlands at the entrance to bodies of water of that nature, and cull it the boundary under the treaty." THE BRAZOS FLOOD.
