things. 1t is II prevailing opinion here
that the village is built directly over a
lake or massive body of water, as many
indications go to sustain such an opinion.
The Springs furnish the most fncinaling
and picturesque scene in Northwestern
Ohio. They are daily visited by the Sffiic-
ted of every state in the Union. 10 be
sure the water is rather insi pd to a fastid-
ious taste ut first, but one usually learns in
time to prefer the spring water to any
other-perhapS more 30 on account OF its
reputat ion and itr medicinal qualities.
