EAST GLOUCESTER 
The closing of the Hawthorne Inn on 
Ocr. 10 will mark the end of the most 
successful season in the history of East 
Gloucester. Almost before there were 
any guests at the other hotels along the 
shore, scores were flocking to East Glou- 
cester, to the Hawthorne Inn and the 
Harbor View and now these are the 
latest to close between Beverly and 
Rockport. The prospect forthe coming 
year is also propitious. 
ter, ground will be broken for a_ hotel 
structure which, it is said, will surpass 
anything now standing on the shore. It 
will be raised on the site of the old Co- 
lonial Arms, which burned down last 
year, and will bear that name. It is not 
expected that the new hotel will be ready 
for occupancy before the season of 1911. 
It will be built of stone and concrete.

manner in which the summers of late
