Pequaming.
The writer of this article having a few
spare hours during his visit at L'Anse, and
being iuform, d that a more beautiful drive
could not he found than one between this
city and the town above mentioned, he
procured fine turnout from one Of the
livery bars and started out to make Pc
quaming visit; and before he reached
his destination he made up his mind that
his infor mant had not misrepresented the
facts to him one iota. The road passes
along the lake between these two cities
and the entire distance of nine miles is
through one of the most beautiful and
picturesque countries the writer ever
saw. 1On every hand the, most beautiful
scenery is to be seen, while every now and
then the lake is to be seen, which makes
he drive more delightful. The road the
entire distance is in excellent condition,
and to a person who has never made this
irive all we can say is to try 1t, and you
will always remember 1t with pleasure

ming j. located on Keweenaw Bay and is
