TIIESPRINGIELD DULYRERUBL1CAN: MONDAYAUGUST 3 X8G8 LAKE WILLOUGHBY The Gcbi ot Watering Place in 1 eruiont r0 ondence of The Republican Willoughby Lake House A Jtuy oO rarlt publican: Have you ever visited loudiby the most delightful of all the Hg 'unimer resorts of green and breezy A er mont? That is not unlikely but some of your lreworn readers have not roth Springfield to Brattleboro Bellows alls White River and yewport is a familiar ride But just twenty miles before you would have reached the latter place the conductor snouts nest a conspicuous sign upon the south end of what purports to be the depot informs you that here i ts he stage for Willoughby 1 here it stands three seated vehicle as it was yesterday the lank driver with his hands clasped laziy over hi right knee having possession of the front seat and a mail bag of the second all ready a moment ne rousua err aboard' and we are off Ihe rule is a little rough but exhilarating Repeated once a div for a'weekit would make damaging inroads upon the most stubborn dyspepsia YY pass very small stores with very large signs rude saw mills with dry mill dams and waiting logs of cedar and hemlock prim farm houses some of them white and some of them wood colored ti'i women in gingham sun bonners picking raspberries by the dusty road side and rosy faced maidens in clean calico peering throughthe windows a spireless but immaculately white church and just as the speech makers tell us it used to be in good old puritan times the house by its side" or a little beyond Al hat more could oue desire to sec in a short ride of six miles But we are1 at Willoughby lhe driver has rounded a short corner and the glory ot this choice spot bursts upon us all at once AA'as there ever such a glassy clear lake with two such mouiitams for its guards right and left and such silence and beauty and grandeur found before? And lest something should be wanting for a joy Bemis with a generous face stands ready to give the newcomer a true welcome flie fashionable world yet here Blessed sot! May they never find it I warn them off It is not suited to their tastes It is a resort for those who have brains in their heads and souls that have some compass That mountain upon the left is more than 2000 feet high And that bolder craggier in some places that magnificent mountain facing it upon the ri ht is more than 2600 feet high Its elevation above the sea is 3800 feet And the mirror of a lake that nestles between them six miles in leiw th and from one half to two miles in breadth is'a depth which for aught man knows cor re ponds to the high! of the mountains Doubt less it has a bottom though a line of six hun dred feet has failed to find it where the water is supposed to be the deepest The mountain upon the right I said is very steep or many hun died feet it rises up a perpendicular wall down which huge fragme its of rock separated from the rest sometimes come tumbling with thundering noise An old who was getting the boats in readiness for a picnic party bound three miles up the entertained me this moraiug with some stories of fading masses from the highest point which von would probably not believe if I should repeat'them I understand however that the lake's serpent story did not originate with him and will add for the reassurance of the timid that the man who grappled with him and the reported monster himself must have haunts bv other waters They have never been seen here But mv letter is already unite as long as your readers will wish to have it Bring along your fishing tackle if you are a disciple of Walton and your rifle also if your ambition can be satisfied with such small game as partridges squirrels and rabbits Your daughter will find a croquet green and good players to match her And Mr Bemis will give you good quarters and leave enough in your purse for a visit to that next best lake which draws the crowd to the northern Newport ROM WASHING TOH (ten Dyer to Have a The Demo Bcrat in a Huff with the JUr Seward for Grant By
