108 VIEW ON THE HUDSON. 



VIEW ON THE HUDSON NEAR VERPLANCK'S POINT. 



The view attached to this plate was taken from a meadow 

 about four miles below Caldwell's Landing, on the Hudson, 

 about forty miles from New York, overlooking the western 

 portion of Haverstraw Sea or Bay, and embracing within its 

 limits Verplanck's Point on the left, Stony Point with its 

 lighthouse, and Grassy Point on the right ; while the Haver- 

 straw or Rockland Hills close the view. The highest summit 

 of this range is seen towering over Grassy Point, and is 

 called the High Torr, rising about seven hundred feet above 

 the level of the sea, and affording one of the finest and most 

 extensive views from its summit in the United States of North 

 America.
