Mr.. Fred H. Bearce, who had COM
menced to clear up a portion of his
shore, preparatory to the erection of
cottages, before the preliminary sur

made. He has just completed three

on the east shore of the lake. They
are three miles from Winthrop, at the

turnout is 600 feet long. At the north
end, or near it, Mr.. Collins of Hotel
Maranocook, will have a floating dock,
and will run his steamer in connection
with the electrics.
This shore has many fine locations
for cottages, and by another season
undoubtedly there will be quite a set

just across the lake, they now have
about 100 boarders, besides the many
families in cottages. The Sir Charles

lied. Both hotels run steamers to
Winthrop.
