Beauty at Your Back Door

The CONSERVATION and indignation running
rampant in the village of Seneca resulting from
last weeks article in the Sentinel" entitled "Old
Timers Would Bow To High Dam" has changed
the peaceful River Bend Dam issue into veritable
imbroglio breathing fire and birthstone
Such misinformation and innuendo apropos
the settlement of Seneca itself aside from the
dam controversy, cannot go unchallenged, nor can
it be taken lightly
There is hardly sembance of truth in the
major portion of the article, and the property
owners, itinerant summer visitors and nature
lovers are up in arms-they are not going to take
such untrue and unjust criticism of the place they
have learned to love, sitting down.
We challenge the statement: after all what's
around here but swamp and marshes-the lands
so bad north OF here it was donated to the State
TO use as a game preserve. Nobody could farm
and make profit"
The first thing that needs correcting is the
direction The "swamps and marshes" are west
OF Seneca, not north. The land which was donated
to the State of Maryland is truly swampland-
but it Is only 400 acres, 200 of which were given
by Mr. Mckee and 200 by Mr.. Brashears on River
Road, for use as a wild duck sanctuary
The State Game and Inland Fish Commission
spent lot of money planting wild rice and trying
all they knew how to make the swampland more
ike sWampland than 1t actually is. I was in
formed by Mr. Mckee that he could have sold
this land for. $4,000 an acre, yet he gave 1t to
the State because he is a nature lover and true
conservationst Who Is there to say that this land
is worthless? Certainly not anyone who has red
blood in his veins
We cheerfuly admit that there is probably
1000 acres of swampland directly west of Seneca,
but it is certainly serving well to keep the true
balance which is sorely needed by all things per.
tanning to Nature.
Mr.. Charles Arnutt who owns a large farm
west of Seneca is certainly a successful farmer
with land that is described as worthless. Mr.
Allnutt snorted in disgust when apprised of the
derogatory statement about the land west of
Seneca.
Both Mr.. Mckee and Mr. Brashears own i'm.
mense tracts of land west of Seneca which are
intensively farmed and they certainly are not in
business for sentiment
The article states: This whole place is going
down anyhow. When was a little girl the creek
was always at bank level Look at It now"
Yes look at IT now. Look at one of the most
Montgomery County sentinel., 1957-07-18

beautiful creeks in the East. Look at the creek
which has had along its banks building boom
which has exhausted all of the land bordering it
with the exception of one or two small lots. We
have never heard anyone who lived along the
creek say that they didn't like IT, 1 think every
one of them LOVE Seneca Creek.
AS far as Seneca deterioratng let me tell
you something. Today is Sunday If you had
been here you would have seen at least thou
sand cars passing through-there were at least
$50 boats on the water-the fishermen were out
en- masse and boats for rent were at premium.
The parking lot was full to overflowing. Places
of business were jam packed; the government pic
mic area was too full for comfort. Going down?
Not by tugful
Ray Riley whose father was the lock tender
at the Seneca lock told me that the creek is just
as full OF water as it ever was lin fact said he,
"If anything it's deeper; there's solid rock bot
tom there that was never there before; there is
no silt in the river there's a little sand bar to
the left of the acqueduct due to flash flood
which will go the next time the river gets real
high"
Mrs. Hattie v. Connell who has lived along
the river all of her life and has spent 50 years in
the very house in which she is living today. when
asked what she thought about the ''high dam"
was emphatic in Il don't want to see this place
changed-Tve lived here all my life and I love
1t; would like to spend my last days here" Ger
tainly the word of one who has resided in Seneca,
longer than anyone, is worthy of consideration.
Phil Sample owner Of the Seneca Hotel says:
I've only lived in Seneca for IL years. spent
% years in the Navy and have been around the
world several timesI have seen many places
but Seneca is the most beautiful and restful spot
I have ever seen. wouldn't have invested $75,-
Montgomery County sentinel., 1957-07-18

10000 in property in Seneca if hadn't been sold
on its potentallties"
Peyton C. Connell, another property owner
at Seneca, was witherngly scornful of any at
tempt to place Seneca a low-lying plane. "That
whole story is utterly ridiculous" he exclaimed
vehemently.
Perhaps, in relation to the high dam, J. Paul
Delphey, hunter and sportsman, who has made
Seneca his rendezvous for over 80 years. sums up
the whole thing in simple statement-'Roy,
/ don't want to see even a single tree harmed
around here" he said
And that let me tell you, is an honest state
ment coming from man who hates to see Nature
tampered with or destroyed. I'd like to tell you
about how once upon wintry night, he almost
had to forcibly restrain a Virginia farmer who
wanted to cut down one of his own trees, to dis
lodge a raccoon which Mr. Delpheys dogs had
treed "Tll go get an axe" said the farmer when
he thought we couldn't find the coon. "Oh no,
don't do that" said Mr.. Delphey, We'll let this
boy climb up there and he'll find him." And then,
facetously he added, 'Woodman spare that tree"
Mr.. Delphey, when asked his opinion of the
high dam, said - I'm like you, Roy, don't see
why a series of small dams wouldn't fill the bill
just as well as a big one would"
I don't know of anyone in Seneca (and 1
have talked to many many people, who want
the high dam" or who think Seneca is retrograd-
ing Seneca is coming along very nicely, and SO
per cent of the people who live in, or frequent
Seneca, would like it to progress further. And

One more thing: The Washington Star thinks
well of Seneca that last Saturday they sent
a photographer and writer up here to do
pictorial story of it; no doubt you win these
pictures in this Sundays photo section. They
may give you-the ones who have never been
here, some idea of what makes Seneca tick and
why it is today THE finest watering place on
the upper Potomac.
