VILLAGE OF
GREENSBORO

1t does not require long stretch
of Imagination to see Lake Caspian
as the body of an immense bird and
the village as two large white wings
attached to its shoulders and the
whole ready to make a dive down
the narrow valley dug out by the
swift stream that runs from the lake.
OF course it takes some imagination
to give the place that form but in
going up the valley to the village we
had very real feeling that there was
a large body of water almost resting
on top of the hills above US and We
found on arrival that the village
forms the barrier which restraints the
waters from a destructive sweep
down the valley.
We have mentioned elsewhere the
neat and prosperous appearance of
the village. This is the result of a
good farming region on all sides of
the village which gives it a sound and
conservative business year in and year
out and the awakening that the de-
velopment of a large summer trade
has brought about. Located as it is
1900 feet above the sea it is not
shut in but looks out over a vast
tract of hills and mountains, has
pure and invigorating air, a fine
gravity water system and seems
withal an ideal place for summer
rest, especially SO on account of the
absence of mosquitoes and the black
flies that usually poster the sojourner
on a lake shore.
There is complete harmony between
the summer and the permanent resi-
dents. Each class desires to live de-
Gently and they enjoy living decently
together. Into the churches of the
village the campers bring the en-
thusiasm of numbers while from their
preachers they have supplied the pull
pits and many of the strong divines
of this country have preached the
gospel in the churches of Greensboro.

and the palatable home cooking that

A tanning stone, used by Indians
for dressing the skins of animals has
been found at Ramblewood, indicat-

People") who roamed this section be-
fore white settlers knew II, were ia

point.
Montpelier Camp, a very small
camp on the southwestern shore OF
Birch Point, was also one of the earli-
est buildings on the lake, and still
stands, somewhat modified. Mr..
Parker of Littleton and Judge w.
H. Taylor of Hardwick, built sum-
mer cottages on Birch Point many
years ago, and Mr.. Quimby Of Lit
Teton built the cottage now owned
by the Rev. Mr.. Wismer Of Bristol,
Conn.
Mr.. Bancroft was the first pur-
chaser on Birch Point from outside
the state. In 1911 Hon. Winthrop
More Daniels, of the Interstate Com
n.erce Commission, and Mrs. Daniels,
purchased a site of several acres on
Birch Point, and a little later other
property was purchased by members
of the Yale faculty.
