4 FEW WORDS FOR GALBRAITRS

or 1blNUO.
To the Editor Of The Morristown Gazette:
After spending a few days very
pleasantly at the popular summer re-
sort known as Galbraith's Springs, /
was called home on account OF a very
sick family, (much improved myself
however, and how could / otherwise
be after visiting even for few days
only, the most desirable place it has
ever been my happy lot 10 enjoy. L
believe / would sooner make my home
at Galbraith's Springs during the sum
msr months, under irs present manage
ment, than any place | have ever seen.
It is the smoothest running concern,
its size considered, that / have noticed.
There is no jar, no friction, NO harsh
or grating sounds, no loud words, NO
harsh words, no boister0us. demonstra-
tons, no coarse or prOfane expressions
heard upon the entire premises from
one weeks end TO another. There must
be 8 wonderful neral magnetism about
the proprietors of that lovely place.
The commanding influence of the
hostess 10 wonderful, IL commands are
really given at all. Ii appears like the
the attaches of the whole concern
anticipate her wishes, and take de-
light in complying with them before
they are uttered, than otherwise. But
ono is not surprised &C this even, when
you look Mt that artless. benign, chAste,
pure countenance, with Those dark,
soft eyes, while they speak ffrmness .at
the same time they shower a world of
kind and irresistible influence all
around, so much so that even the
toughest character Is subdued in her
presence, and thus 1t is such perfect
order, such harmony, such perfect
regularity, such comfort, such hap
piness andcontentmenti Is seldom found
any where; and then there is the male
partner, Andrew, as We all learned TO
call him, who contributes no small
amount TO the general management
and comfort Of the plare. he Is here
and there and every where, moving
rapidly and quietly, always in good
humor-leaving nothing undone that
can possibly contribute TO the comfort
OF every body. ALI in all, we think he
is the noblest fellow we ever met. And
last but not least by any means, comes
Miss Addie GreeyeT, the daughter OF
the proPrietress, just In time, at all
times, with her laugh and chatter and
Jolly jokes, she makes every body hap
py where ever she goes, and goes every
where almost at the same time, and
every body likes her we believe. The
whole thing would lose much of good
cheer and sunshine were it not for
her Blessed be her future, she Is only
q little past a. But we leave the
hotel for the present and walk up an
excellent roadway, just 80 or 20 yards
to the springs. Here it comes dashing
and dancing, and laughing from tie
deep tenebrisus depths Of the noun
tain's base, whose bights aud sides are
covered with great sand stones bould-
ers piled up in proportions that makes
one stop and pause, and wonder at the
mighty power and incomprehensible
agency that lifted those mountains mp
in such awful grandeur. IL pours its
life-9fYinQ current into the deep rocky
FaVine. Down, down Ii goes, chatting
and chattering 10 the PEBBLES as il goes.
Reaching the hotel IL passes right un-
der IL. chanting as it goes q lullaby 10
the sleepers, meckiug the rain sh 'wers.
until &c passes fa- down below and Ia
Lost In the deep woody dell, like the
fading colors OF some sweet dream and
then loses us In the sweetness Of its
memories. o beautiful place, may we
see IL again. But we are overlooking
much OF the more real and suhstan tial
of the place. We would not forget TO
remind the reader If the fact that three
times every day we are called By a
large bell, to an airy spacious diEing
room, where long tables groan under
n rich prOfnsion of the choice Injuries
that those broad rich riTer and creek
vAllies can produce. And permit me to
say ia all truth, that the preparation
and ceeking are simply faultless,
in so much that the most fastidious
eplcure could not raise an objection.
Everything considered we have NO
heaitancy I'm saying that we believe
Galbraith's Springs Is the NEST COM
Portable and enjoyable W Altering place
In all the country. We shall remem-
her our abort stay there, with the
Kindness and comfort We received,
while we remember anything. Long
may the proprieiors Of that pleasant
resort live 70 enjoy the broad and just
ly earned reputation Of controlling
one OF the most desirable watering
places I'm AL East Tennessee. Il.
