OCEAN VIEW, July 26, 1890.
One Of the most attractive seaside resorts
this season is Ocean View, situated about
eight miles from Norfolk, Va, IN Norfolk
county, in full view of the ocean.
The bathing on the beach is one OF its
strong attractions. and many claim that It
is one of the best and safest surf-bathlng
beaches in this part of the country. There
is no dangerous undertow, and gentle
slope of the beach takes you some distance
out into the water.
Those who are fond of sailing can in
dulge in this delightful pastime. A party
of two gentlemen from your city. went
aboard of the Mayfiower, commanded by
Captain Thomas Taylor, on Friday and
had pleasant sail 70 Old Point
Mr.. James. j.. Williams, the efficient
manager of Ocean View. says that this Is
the best season they have ever had. HIS
hotel has been crowded since June.

the number from your city We noticed 1lr.
