First sentence: On the sinuous banks of the upper portion of the mountain-born Winooski, amidst the clustering confluences of its chief tributaries, in latitude 44 17', longitude 4 25' from Washington, and at an altitude of 540 feet above the level of the ocean, lies, snugly embosomed among the hills, in the heart of the Green Mountains, the flourishing and important interior town of which I have undertaken to give the history, under the unusual name of MONTPELIER.
