/ Washington, Mr.. Deception, and othe
elevations in New Hampshire; Mt. Mans
field, Cancels Hump and other peaks |
Vermont; Mt. Toxaway, which rises to
height OF between 5000 and 1000 feet /
the sapphire country of North Carolinl
and a host of others, and l know non
that can equal in diversity of view an
I impressive picturesqueness Mansfield an
