erected by the ancient Norseman, who
might have used il for an outlook against
the skrealings, as they called the Indians.
Not far from the mill was the monu-
ment OF Matthew Z. Perry, cousin of
the famous commander Perry, who won
the "battle of Lake Erie" On the mon
ument in raised figures were q number OF
Matthew Perry's exploits, one Of which
was his treaty with Japan. On the top
was life-size figure OF this patriot. There
also was the monument OF William Elery
Charming. His life-sized figure was en-
veleped in long robe. The position was
easy and graceful. the hands were ex-
tended az if to confer benediction up
on the beautiful Gothic church which
bears his name, and which faces the park.
A few days after they went out on the
cliffs to ses the first race between the De-
fender and Vigilsnt. The cliffs were In
deed beautiful, rising precipitously from
the ocean on one side, and with the mag
nificent villas ON the other.
They looked eagerly out on the waters
In search OF the yachts. Here and there
fishing boats were seen in the distance,
nothing else but the deep rolling impet-
uous sea. Continuing this walk along
this, the mott beautiful promenade in the
world, they reached the "Breakers, as
Cornelius Vanderbilt's manificent stone
villa is called. Nearby Ochre Point juts
out into the sea.
Now they see the yachts and the mas
terpiece OF architecture behind them is
forgotten. Delighted they watch them
out OF sight, and then continue their
walk to where the magnificent cliffs end
In the pretty crescent of sandy shore
known as Bsiley's Beach.
After some days they went out among
the yachts in the harbor, called the Rein
deer. The wind blew freshly, and the lit
tie boat danced merrily over the sparkling
green waters. Soon they reached the De-
lender. How beautiful she was, as she sat
like a snow-white bird upon the surface
OF he water, all white, even to the dress
OF her sailors, VINO, all working together,

her. Then they saw the Vigilant, which

he schooner Ariel next met their view.
She was just starting out, and cut
through the water like knife with her
sailors running about on her deck. Then
there was the Emesld and Iroquois, the
former tue winner OF a silver cup for
schooners. "What boat Is that?" said the
boy as he pointed toward white sloop
much resembling the Defender and Vigf-
liant. She is the Jubilee, and was de-
signed by General Paine," said the skip
