A Jaunt Along the Swampscott Shore to Marblehead.—No. 2 
KATHERINE GANLEY 
T MarsieneAp Necx | found that much is being done 
in preparation for the summer. At the Oceanside 
hotel, which, by the way, kept open its hospitable doors 
all the winter, requests are coming in for the summer, 
and Manager Lane is confident things will hum. 
“Questenmere” opened this week when Mr. and Mrs. 
Frederick McQuesten took up their summer residence 
there. The McQuestens spent the winter in Honolulu, 
ond were lavishly entertained in Washington en route 
north by Major and Mrs. Robert Campbell Ketlon. 
One of the first arrivals at the Neck this season has 
been Miss Julia T. Sherman of Buffalo, who has been a 
regular summer resident for a number of years. 
Mr. and Mrs. Philip N. Wadleigh have opened 
“Castle Rock,” one of the prettiest of the Neck villas. 
Closely following upon the selling of her house to W. H. 
Joyce, Miss L. B. Hood of Brookline began the erection of 
a beautiful stucco house on the old site, which when com- 
pleted will be very pretentious. It is of colonial design 
and is located upon the corner of Ocean avenue and Har- 
bor street. Mr. Joyce has removed the Hood house to the 
corner of Ocean and Harvard streets and will occupy it. 
Mr. and Mrs. Hayward Wilson of Brookline will oc- 
cupy the “Rose Rocks” bungalow for the summer. The 
Wilsons are newcomers to the Neck. Mrs. Ellis Hollings- 
worth, who has a home at Boston and Braintree, will prob- 
eblv spend the summer at “Driftwood,” her fine Neck 
estate. 
Carl P. Dennett, who recently purchased the fine 
Hollander place at the Neck, has removed the old house 
from its original site to other lands at the Neck recently 
purchased by him. Mr. Dennett is now planning the erec- 
tion of a house to occupy the old site. Being of the 
staunch variety of patriot Mr. Dennett has had ploughed 
up a great portion of the estate and will lend his vacation 
thoughts to food production and conservation during the 
su miver. 
H. L. Bowden of Brookline is at present occupying 
“Sky High,” which has been leased for the summer to 
Mr. and Mrs. G. G. Whitney of Milton, who will take up 
their residence there on the 25th of June. The Whitneys 
were at “Sky High” last summer. 
Belair,’ which was leased last season by C. O. 
Baker of New York, has been rented to Mr. and Mrs. J. 
W. Bowman of Winchester, who took occupancy this 
week. 
From casual observation, and a mental summing of 
the gleanings of the several chats which I had with “those 
who know” it is perfectly safe to say that, setting aside 
the unusual conditions of the present, when the warm 
days come you and I will hie ourselves to where the sea 
breezes blow, and cast.aside dull care. 
ARBLEHEAD,.—The fine house which B. B. Crown- 
inshield is building at Peach’s Point overlooking the 
harbor, is nearly completed and has been leased by Dr. 
Chas. May of New York. Dr. May is no newcomer to 
Peach’s Point, having several years ago occupied the 
“Moorings.” 
Mr.. Brackett, owner of the “Rock-Mere” at Marble- 
head, is quite cheerful as regards the outlook for the com- 
ing season, and says that renovating in the hotel is rush- 
‘ng on to completion.
