propriated to the and purpose of the Hotel,
which is 100 feet by g. The out-houses are large
and abundant; and the grounds and garden are not
only beautiful but yield immense supply Of frat

chiefly Of single gentlemen, many Of whom recog-

owner OF this hotel property, which he leased to
Mr. Phelps The severe times Of 81 reverted the
lessee from going ahead with so large establish

centre OF the village proper. What mean by this

which is flat rock projecting from the shore, and
forming natural dock and andng-p'ace, alongside
Of which small ship may lay with safety. More

You may arrive there a half-past in the morning
