The Hayward Review
Hayward, California
September 17, 1897

There are no fish in Crater lake, Or., the deepest fresh water lake in the world, and the Government has decided to stock it with trout. The natives used to say that the lake was bottomless, but soundings have shown its greatest depth to be 2000 feet.
