SEVENTH REPORT OF THE FOREST, FISH AND GAME COMMISSION. 



station on the underground raihva}- of the Abolitionists was located on one of 

 these islands. 



The air of this region is pure, clear, humid and at all times invigorating, forming 

 one of the attractions and sources of pleasure to the tourist just from the heated, 

 noisome atmosphere of an overcrowded city. As soon as the sun lowers in the west 

 the temperature drops, and be the day ever so hot the evening is cool, the 

 atmosphere tonic. People from inland places who are suffering from insomnia, 

 generally experience little or no trouble in obtaining refreshing sleep with its 

 resultant health and strength. 



Othe'- matters of interest, of which no mention is made here, will occupy much of 

 the time of the tourist. A week soon passes, and still there are many places to see, 

 many pleasures to enjoy. The visitor who is not pressed for time, but is intent on 

 rest and recreation only, will linger in this charming region, finding with each day 

 some new pleasure and attraction. The traveler leaves it regretting that he cannot 

 make a longer stay, but cherishing the pleasant hope that he may visit it again.
