Lake Morey.

Lake Morey, named after Samuel
Morey the inventor of the first steam
boat, is liquid gem, surrounded by
an ampitheatre of glorious hills, with
shadowy mountain outlines in the
background. 1t is fed by never fail
ing springs, and its limpid waters re-
fleet the feecy clouds and mvert the
trees and cottages along the shore.
Nothing is lacking in the serene and
restful beauty of the scene.
A delightful little steamer plies the
lake and is a source of much pleasure
to the many visitors at the Lake dur
ing the summer months.
The Glen Falls house, otherwise
called the Middle Point house, was
built in 1888, and derives lis name
from the Glen Falls, sylvan cascade,
When swollen by heavy rains, it is an
impetuous torrent and with the lapse
of ages its has hewn it's way down
through the solid rock nearly IS feet
forming a sort of tlume or miniature
canyon, in which the current turns
just above the brow of the falls and
descends on a perpendicular rock a
distance of rs feet. The broad arms
of the trees form a leafy roof which

brief time in the morning, and the rus
tic seats beneath furnish a cool and
comfortable retreat in the warmest
weather. The falls are the greatest
attraction of the hotel, being only a
few minutes walk.
A few feet from the hotel is situated
in a cool and secluded spot, cool and
sparkling mineral spring, whose wa
ters are pronounced equal to those of
the celebrated Poland Springs. The
hotel is situated on Middle Point com
handing fine view of the Lake, with
the shadowy outlines of Sugar Loaf
and Moosilauke visible in the distant
background. Just below are situated
the cottages of Bracy, the photogra-
pher; Bradford; ''Birchmere" and fur

Rev. i. p. Tucker and the summer
home of Rev. T. p. Frost, pine Rest

The Glen Falls house is comfortably
and a good, wholesome fare
is provided for all guests. There is
every reason to believe that as the at
fractions become better known, it is
destined to become a favorite summer
resort in the not distant future. 1t is
desirable to that large and |
class of tourists of moder-
ate means, who desire quiet retirement
and restful recreation. Its crystal wa
ters are we'll stocked with a variety of |
fish, while small game is quite album
dant in the adjoining forest. Mos
quitoes are almost unknown, and pure,
cold. copious springs are abundant.
