NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
ANNISQUAM. 
Now that the warm and sultry 
weather has arrived, the tide of the 
summer visitors, has again turned 
towards our shore, cooled with the 
fresh and balmy breezes of the dear 
old Atlantic, and fragrant with the 
effervescence of the woods of old 
Cape Ann.

wends its way towards the beautiful 
bay of Ipswich, and where the sites 
of the favorite summer hotels over- 
look the hills and water for miles 
around, visitors from all parts of the 
world forsake their homes in the 
almost breathless city, for the pure 
fresh air of Annisquam.

chor, glimmering in the light of the

of the local artist’s studio, and 
nearly every evening, guests will 
promenade the shore roads, admir-

scenes.
