PARK AND CEMETERY, 
PROPOSED PARK AT AUSTIN, MINN. 
The attractive and enterprising little city of 
Austin, Minn., is pleasantly situated on the banks 
of the Cedar River and surrounded by the rich roll- 
ing prairies of southern Minnesota. 
The stream, with its clear waters mostly derived 
from springs, describes nearly a semi-circle in its 
passage through the corporation limits, while the 
main business street forms a chord to the arc, about 
a mile in length.
