considerable expense identifying this mountain
and has laid out roadway of seven miles TO
it's summit This park. like all of Mr.. Olcott's
estate. is open to the public, and many driving
parties enjoy its shady depths and the fine
outlook from the summit \ trout brook turns
and twists around its base, and something of its
circuitcus way can be understood when is
known that in less than a mile one crosses ten
bridges over the same stream on its crooked
way to Mine Brook
Human feet had seldom trodden this mountain
for generations before it became the property
of Mr.. Olcott. excepting when woodsmen pene-
trated its wilds. This was partly on account of
the prevalence of rattlesnakes and the men
would return telling such wonderful tales of the
snakes that the children OF former years would
taze upon il with awe and pass into its shadow
with bated breath
MIR. Olcott Is an enthusiast IN Horticulture.
In his large greenhouses are many rare and
beautiful plants and chrysanthemum show
