 " Ah! What pleasant visions haunt nic as I gaze upon the sea, 
 All its old familiar legends, all my dreams come back to me." 
 
 With a charm of situation peculiarly its own, offering 
 attractions to summer-visitors in pure air and water, delightful 
 scenery, and hotel accommodations unrivalled, the new-c 
 summer-resort, St. Andrews-by-the-Sea, issues its invitation to 
 ^', the thousands seeking a resting-rctrcat from the toils and 
 cares of business pursuits, the heat and dust of cities, or the 
 etiitui engendered by the too close devotion to home. Here 
 no wasting fever, epidemic, nor malarial disorder saps the 
 system's strength ; but, cooled by the close proximity of Old 
 Ocean, the breath of suminer is as medicine, a balm rejuve- 
 nating the overtaxed nerves, brain, and body, and giving a tone 
 to the whole system from Nature's tonic, — the salt sea-air, — coujiled with the invigorating 
 breath of the ])ine. Probably no point along the coast of Maine and New Brunswick has a 
 more favored location than St. Andrews. The old place has been a sort of " sleeping beauty " of 
 the seaside for generations. It was marked and admired long before it was dreamed of as a possible 
 summer-resort, and always has had a certain patronage of pleasure-seekers, even in times when summer- 
 excursions, trips, or vacations had little or no plan or part in the life of any class. 
 
 Romance blends with the beautiful in Nature and adds greatly to its charm ; for no sylvan scene 
 attracts the eye but awakes the imagination also, peopling it with the actors in the stirring events 
 
 

 of thf past which mark this spot as the extreme oiiti)ost of the early French settle- 
 ment ill Xortli America, dating baciv far into the seveiUuenlh century, when the cross 
 of the fcsuit was first planted on these shores by Saint Andre (or Andie), the rover- 
 end fatlicr, whose name still clings to Point St. Andrew,— the M. Andrews of today. 
 Later, tiie hills and dales surnumdini,' this, the shire-town of Charlotte County, oft echoed the shrill war-whoop ofithe 
 wily savage who, allied with the French, from St. Andrews as a rally'ng-point, issued forth upon those cruel raids which 
 char II teri/ed the struggle between the Roses of iMigland and the Lilies of France for the possession of the Western Con- 
 tiiuiit. Today, the visitor of one summer roams afield where ages agone the painted sasage worshipped beneath the cross 
 and siiit up his miiiitored pra\ci to tiie (Ireat Spirit; or, embarking, ])lows the jilacid waters of the beautiful bay once 
 doiiei! wiih hark canoes, and gathers inspiration with health in the pursuit of pleasure amid scenes, the theatre of events 
 which have added pages to the historv of three centuries.

 Where is St. Andrews? 
 
 Eastward, following the coast of Maine, — that rugged line of rocky headlands and d(.r|) indLMiiations so famous as 
 culminating the whole grandeur of the Atlantic coast, — the rocky fringe continues, r.ntil a lovely archipelago separates fho 
 
 south-eastern corner of the State of Maino 
 and the I'niled States from the I'.nglisli 
 Province of New lirunswick. Its Indian 
 
 
 "'1^/'M' 
 
 
 
 name, Passaiuaqttodily, reminds one that 
 
 '■ Our name is on your waters, you cannot 
 wash It out." 
 
 He who enters l'assama(|uoddy liay 
 from the ocean, through one of the three; 
 narrow, tortuous channels, passes from 
 the open sea where the mighty waves 
 advance and recede, break, roar, and 
 foam against the rugged barriers of rock 
 in the vain attempt to gain an entrance with 
 him, into a smooth, placid bay, studded 
 with islands of breezy stnmnits, and with 
 rocky, pictures(|ue shores, here and there 
 
 indented with gravelly coves, where the dark-green waters break in gentle ripples on their shelving beaches, or gently

 sway the loiij^ nOiVWeeds clinn!n>^ tenaciously to the crcvlcos .t' the rocks on the 
 
 mure al)rii|)t .sliorc, as the ^leat tidus ebb and How. 
 
 The sea l)illowy is passed and tlie steamer speeds nieiiily over tlie sea placid, 
 
 crossing thu twelve miles which intervene to tlie farther shore, and, with an insight 
 into the beauties of the spot which shall develop with each hour of sojourn, reaches St. Andrews, with its welcome, 
 lint for the tr.ivclkr who inters St. .Andrews by rail is reserved that great transfcjrniatioii scene, when from a country 
 landscajie of held and forest he emerges at once into full view of the sea, which bursts upon the eye like a revelation. 
 Three miles out, the train passes the largest Chamcook 
 lake, so near that one can almost see the gamey salmon in 
 its transparent waters waiting to challenge his skill; and the 
 air is tempered to refreshing coolness by the bree/es from 
 olf its bosom. This shall be a favorite resort of yours, O 
 visitor. Whether disciple of rod and fly or not, you cannot 
 resist the attractions of a three-mile drive, over roads which 
 are jierfection, to this secluded spot, this lake of the woods, 
 nestling ;it the t'eet uf its brothers, the Chamcook Mountains, 
 which from lime immemorial have thus stood guard over the 
 sleeping lake. While one is making a mental note of this, 
 the train bears 1 "iii on past cove and inlet, with glimjjses of 
 
 the sea beyond, and finally conies to a halt at the convenient little depot, where carri.-'ues wait to bear the visitor to his hotel. 
 We have found St. Andrews! It is, then, situated upon a narrow jjeninsula projecting far into I'assamaquoddy Hay 
 from the Xew-lirunswick sliore. A short distance off the wharves at St. Andrews runs that imaginary line which forms the 
 international boundary between the United States and the liritish 1 rovince of New Brunswick. St. .Andrews may be reached 
 by direct railroad lines from Montreal, St. John, and Hoston, and by the steamers of the International Line from Boston, 
 Portland, and St. John, offering a choice of routes which will be discussed later and at length.

 it into two |)arts and illustrate what Nature and what man have each done for this charming spot. 
 
 Imagine, then, a town of some seventeen hundred inhabitants, quiet, tree-embowered, peaceful, nestling to the water's 
 edge upon a narrow peninsula surrounded upon three sides by a broad expanse of dancing sea, gently rising from the shore

 until, at a distance of two tliousand feet from high-water mark, an altitutlc of one 
 hundred and fifty feet is attained; yet so evenly graded is die slope, terraced there by 
 the hand of Nature, that one perceives it not until, turning at the summit, the eye is 
 charmed by the view seaward over the sleeping town. Turning to each point of 
 the c()mi)as!;, the visitor sees an encircling line of coast, encompassing a broad expanse of sea, while beyond the narrow- 
 neck of land which connects St. Andrews with the mainland rise the Chamcook Mountains, forming an amphitheatre within 
 whose walls rest the fairest in this the very home of forest-fringed lakes. This is the outlook from Fort Hill. It is here 
 that man has ])laced his hostelry ; " myne comfort in niync inn " means much amid such surroundings. 
 
 Occupying the higliust point of land within 
 the town, vet so far removed from it that whatever 
 stir of conniierce or trade vet remains to the sleepy 
 burgh is hushed, the hotel site of the new Algonquin 
 is ]> rticularly grand. l'"ive hundred feet away stands 
 old Fort Tippcrary, famous wlien St. .\ndrews was a 
 strongly garrisoned border-town, and today retaining 
 a part of its ancient glory in the obs(jlete guns still 
 mounted behind the earth-works, and in the ofticers' 
 (juarters and barracks, fast falling to decay. Late 
 vears have seen the earth-works bristling with arms and have heard the roll of the drums of Uritish regulars upon but two 
 occasions, — the firs' "the Trent affair," and again during the famous "Fenian Raid" of 1866. Then ships of war 
 anchored in the l)ay, and transports lantled company after company, until a full regiment of Royal Grenadiers occupied the 
 walls of the ancient fortress and brought relief to the anxious oitizens of the town. 
 
 leaving the nuignificcnt natural scenery afforded to the eye from Fort Hill for a stroll al)out the (piict streets, one meets 
 the picturcsc(ue at every turn, — in the old-fashioned quaint houses, with a display of flowers in the windows of the poorest, 
 evidence of the natural cultivation ot the people; and in the broken-down wharves which line the water-front of the town,

 once teeming with the life of commerce. Never was a town more profusely blessed 
 with flowers than St. Andrews, and, curiously enough, Nature has ordered that spring 
 and summer blossoms combine at once to please; thus the species which are passed to 
 the denizen of an American city bloom again for him upon his arriving at .St. An- 
 drews. Everywhere, rose and hawthorn hedges meet the eye and charm the senses, while the humblest cottage presents 
 its mass of brilliant-colored flowers. 
 
 St. Andrews was at o;ie time famous for its shipping. It is within the memory of the older inhabitants that a fli-et of 
 twenty square-rigged vessels waiting in St. Andrews Bay their turn to receive or discharge cargo at the crowded wharves was 
 
 no uncommon sight, while phenomenal stories are 
 told of man's ability to walk from the lower end 
 of the town to Joe's Point u/'oii the dt\/cs of Tissr/s, 
 stepping from one to the other. True it is that St. 
 Andrews once commanded the West-India and 
 coasting trade of the whole province, and true, 
 alas, that there remains today nothing of this far- 
 reaching C(jmmerce save here and there a vessel, 
 long condemned, falling with the unused w-harf at 
 which it lies into dilapidation, in its decay most 
 picturesque ; while about the ancient timbers the 
 flashing, dancing waters of the bay leap and cling, 
 as if in endeavor to awaken them from their 
 lethargy and again revive the old-time prosperity, .\lthough its clangor and confusion have gone forever, the old town is still 
 interesting, its quiet and restfulness, together with the embelli-diment which Nature and man have given it, constituting its 
 principal charm for summer-visitors. The very streets of the town, laid out in the year 1784 by Deputy John Jones, surveyor 
 for th^ ("rown, and builded by the sturdy loyal forefathers of St. Andrews.'are a novelty, formed as they are by avenues of 
 
 It

 a uniform length and sixty to eighty feet wide, crossing at right angles and dividing 
 the town into sixty blocks each three hundred and twenty feet square. 
 
 TiiK DiuvKS. — Leading from St. Andrews as continuations of the broad 
 avenues of the town, are roads which are perfection as far as road-building goes. 
 Forcst-Iinrd and shaded, these wide highways reach many charming spots by sea and inland lake, where the luncheon- 
 basket maybe unpacked and its contents eaten with an avidity bom of the invigorating air. Or, if the lover of horse- 
 flesh desires u, speed, every opportunity is afforded by the magnificent livery of St. Andrews, where turnouts of every 
 dcscriinion may be had at phenomenally low rates. The roads about St. Andrews partake of the peculiar geological 
 formatinn of the town, — a red sand- — — — — 
 
 1 1 1 i-t 1 
 
 stone, — which can be seen crojiping 
 (lilt here and there, and through which 
 the ro.iils are graded, reminding one 
 greatly of the famous "pikes" of the 
 Middle States; while upon these rocky 
 highways the horses' feet strike and 
 resound, a merry acconi|)aiiiment to 
 the wheels. Xo mud, no dust. The 
 water from the severest rainfall re- 
 mains not to aimoy or dispel the 
 pleasures of the drive, but percolates 
 through tiie porous road-bed until, in 
 
 an incredibly short time, the lightest slipper is not dampened by pressure to the ground. Nor does the sun of summer 
 form a ilust, to rise in blinding clouds from under the wheels. Black silks may be worn upon the drive and not 
 rendcreil unsightly objects by a thin coating of earth ; no are gloves and faces soiled.

 The favorite drives are to Chamcook ^[ountain and Lr.ke; the Shore Road, 
 bordcrini; the river; the liar Road to Mowatt's Grove; and, at low water, across 
 the liar to Minister's Island. To visit the sumnut of Chamcook, the horses are 
 left at the base and the ascent accomplished on foot, with a taste of Alpine excite- 
 ment, although the climb is a perfectly safe one. For more than half way from base to sununit, the raouniain is bare 
 of vegetation, save a scanty covering of moss, which ;Lt the summit is itself wanting. In altitude, Chamcook Moun- 
 tain claims one thousand feet above the sea; and as. tide-water washes its very base, the view from its one thousand 
 feet may be far grander than if multiplied five times over, a hundred miles inland. Its companions are crowned with 
 fir-trees, but the summit of Chamcook is bare. Upon its readily yielding surface of the prevailing red sandstone f..rm- 
 ation are carved the names of visitors to this mountain-top in the early years of American independence and the con- 
 sccpient coming of the Loyalists to inhabit the quiet town below. Not singly, but thickly covering the whole summit 
 
 arc thnse carvings. What tales they tell to the imaginative mind! Were they brothers, friends, 
 or lovers? \Vho can tell! Facing seaward, the view is over the bay, and the islands which 
 form its farther border, <nit over the ocean to where Grand Manan alone breaks the line where 
 sky and water meet. Campobello, easily reached by steam or sailing craft, lies suggestively 
 within sight. To the right and beneath lies the calm of the inner bay, reaching up to the 
 mouth of the St. Croix, with Docie's Island almost directly opposite your lookout. Tlic stream 
 is traceable only a short distance before it is hidden by its own windings, yet you mark with 
 interest the dividing-line Itetween the Provinces and the States, so intimately near. The left dis- 
 closes a view across a sheet of water ten miles in width to Toint Midjic and the mouth of the Magaguadavic ; while above 
 and beyond is nrarked in faint perspective the bl 'c outline of the Nova-Scotia shore. Inland, the eye meets first the 
 beautiful lake from which the mountain takes its name, the railroad winding along its shores until lost amid the rounded 
 hills. Katahdin, in Northern Maine, the noblest peak east of the White Mountains, is added to the picture, which the 
 visitor leaves with regret. 
 
Again, the drive is tt) the giove, a inagniricent hard-wood growth within easy 
 distance; and, if the tide be out, there exists in this direction the additional attrac- 
 tion of a ride across the liar to Minister's Island, so called from its purchaser, 
 I'arson Andrews, him of Connecticut Loyalist fame. Tliis ride will be for half a 
 mile, exact measurement, through the bed of Old Ocean and twenty feet behno sea-lci'cl nt /lii^/i -cuiti'/: The phenomenal 
 tides make this possible. 'Uiilike the ocean-bed at other points, there tiring sea at St. Andrews jiresents no nauseating 
 expanse of nuid-(lats; !)ut from the surrounding ledges the sea for countless ages has been chipping, bit by bit, frag- 
 ments of sandstone which form its pebbly beaches and its shining bed. Across this the carriage spins merrily, the 
 horses' feet upheld and the wheels 
 making scarce impression n|)on the 
 imyielding substance. (Ireat kelps 
 and sea-weeds, left by the retiring 
 sea, lie around awaitin;; the return of 
 the water, which now lies upon each 
 side of tile narrow bar which at this 
 season of the tide allows the passage. 
 Juk's Toint.— Near the town 
 is another lookout much .sought. In 
 reaching it, the road passes the old 
 block-house of Indian warfare, sug- 
 gestive still, standing in a delightful 
 little bay of its own, and with its 
 curiously-buiit projecting second story, from loop-holes in which the beseiging savages who attempted to batter down 
 the door were themselves knocked down by bullets from the rifles of the settlers within. Here may be seen guns bear- 
 ing the monogram of George III.

 Indian Point. — But it is at Indian Point, as the extreme end of the 
 peninsula is called, where Art has been called to supplement Nature, and the com- 
 bined efforts of the two have reached a result delightfully novel. In the year 1700, 
 this Indian Point saw the landing of Col. Church and his party from Massachu- 
 setts Hay, bent upon retaliation for the sacking of the town of Deertield, Conn., at that time the most northerly settle- 
 ment upon the Connecticut River,which had been attacked and burned at daybreak on the 29th day of February of 
 the same year by three hundred French and Indians from Passamaquoddy. The point retains little of its old-time 
 
 appearance save its contour, having been transformed into a pub- 
 lic park, with many attractive features for the summer-visitors 
 to the town. Ten acres of land, on the very end of the point, 
 have been turned into a garden-spot, upon which money and 
 landscape-gardening art have been lavished to form such 
 attractions as the ISoulevard (or race-course) around the point 
 upon the water's edge, with a view seaward commaniiing the 
 entire bay ; and serpentine walks and drives leading fr(Mn 
 the border-road and winding in and out among the balsam- 
 firs and pines, whose balmy breath induces health. The i)el)bly 
 walks and drives present a unicjuc appearance, the road-bed 
 formed of the gray and the walks (jf the red gravel from the 
 beaches about the bay. An artijicial lalcc, large and island- 
 studded, occupies the centre of the park, its shingly bottom 
 distinctly seen through the three feet of clear water, suffi- 
 cientlv shallow to allow of escapades in the bark canoes of the Indians, whose artistic wigwam is raised near by, 
 without danger of more than a ducking. Adjoining the park are fifty-five acres of ground to be laid out in building- 
 lots, and where some cottages are already finished, others going up, and many in prospect. The most scrupulous 
 
 t5 
 

 care is being given to the laying-out of the park and cottage-sites by a skilled 
 engineer cs])eciany engaged for the purpose, and under whose supervision a system 
 of drainage is being completed.

 " The sound of the church-going bell " goes out at St. Andrews from five denominational edifices. The English 
 church, a neat Gothic structure, is beautifully situated and well filled 
 eacli Sundav. Here the American visitor will find a charming novelty 
 in the liiiglish service as it is rendered beneath the Crown. ISut the 
 chief (Iiarm lies in the Scottish kiris, which, high upon its bell- 
 tower, hears the carved and naturally painted image of an oak-tree, 
 with the legend beneath, " C.reenock Church. Erected 1S24." In- 
 side, there is the huge double-decked pulpit of solid mahogany, 
 with sounding-board ato]), and with two flights of steps, protected 
 by gates, up which the preacher must climb to gain entrance 
 to the red-curtained enclosure. One expects to be addressed by a 
 preacher in the old-time jieriwig and smalls, and wonders if ye 
 tvthing-man will correct the misdemeano'- if he turns to survey the 
 audience, fully e.xpecting them to be members of the past congregations, among whom he had intruded in fancy. This 
 church was built at a time when St. Andrews was the great ship])ing-port of the province, by one of her most ])ros- 
 perous merchants, who gave it to the parish, and who spared no expense in furnishing it in the most approved ecclesi- 
 astical style, as witness the mammoth i)ulpit brought from England at an expense of ;if5oo. Its like cannot be

 But the people of the parish were unappreci- 
 ative to such an extent that the first yearly- 
 rates (taxes) were unpaid. Possibly they were 
 willing to leave that also to the generosity 
 of the donor; but, not to be trifled with, that 
 gentleman, procuring a brace of pistols, 
 mounted his double-decked pulpit one sabbath 
 morning and in lieu of a sermon gave the con- 
 gregation a volley in intimidation ; then, after 
 the last had vanished, leaving tiie odor of 
 burning powder to mingle witli the odor of 
 sanctity, the donor, locking the dmn; betook 
 himself home, and announced that when the 
 congregation paid their rates tliey could have 
 their church. A carved dove, bearing the olive- 
 branch of peace, placed above the pulpit, attests 
 the peaceful outcome of the strife, and leaves- 
 it to be inferred that thereafter the parishoners 
 were more careful iu payment of their dues.

Withal, the visitor will find much of interest as well as of pleasure and instruc- 
 tion from the Sabbath among St. Andrews churches, where he will encounter a 
 majority of the people of this sober town, who are all the happier from having 
 "been to kirk." 
 
 The town also boasts of a neat little marine hospital for the relief of seamen, and, being the sliire-town of 
 Charlotte Countv, possesses the court-house and county jail, bo'h in an enclosure together, so that a stern judge may 
 by a glance fron> the window see his sentence carried into execution, and both displaying, conspicuously, the lion and 
 unicorn below the crown.

 Readers of summer literature arc familiar with elaborate and detailed statements of the weather at various summer- 
 resorts, where, if one m .y believe all that he reads, the thermometer never reaches the eighties, the sky is flecked with 
 just enough of cloud to perfect the landscape, the days warmed by the summer sun to just the right temperature for 
 comfort, the brec/cs arc ever bahny, and the nights always cool. Fortunate is the writer, then, that he has not to draw 
 upon the imagination nor gather dry statistics to adorn his chapter upon the climatic conditions of St. Andrews. No less 
 authority than Gen. A. W. (Jreely, of the United-States Signal Service, in an .article in " Scribner's," entitled "Where Shall 
 We Sj^end Our Summer?" alter detailing in much the above manner what people are led to expect, s.ays : "There is possibly 
 one place in the United St.ites where such conditions obtain,— a bit of country of about forty square miles at the extreme 
 south-western part of the United States, in which San Diego is situated; but even here, pcrh.ips once in two or three years, 
 the sultry blasts from the Mojave Desert pass over the low mountain-range and parch this favored district. ... By a 
 singular contrast, the second favored spot as to summer weather is the extreme north-eastern point of the United States,—

 Eastport, Maine. ... At luistport, the prevailing summer winds arc from the south, 
 which malies the weather delightful." (Icn. tireely, in the charts which accompany 
 his article, places the mean daily temperature at 68'-' during the entire heated term. 
 There is another phase of summer weather which is of equal importance with the 
 question of temperature. This is the humidity of atmosphere. Again we quote Gen. (Irecly, whose chart shows that the 
 belt denoting the dryest atmosphere passes through I'assamaquoddy Bay. lie says : " It is further of importance to note 
 
 ^~, that the quantity of vapor ])er cubic 
 
 ,,_^ — ; ' ■" ."' ; ■.--.'., , '■ !/ ,^ • 'i foot decreases as one goes northward, 
 
 and the absolute amount of water in 
 the air in New Jersey is fifty ])er cent 
 greater than in Maine, while the cpian- 
 tity along the Atlantic sea-coast from 
 Hatteras south is nearly twice as great. 
 ... A dry summer climate is assumed 
 to be one where the atmosphere con- 
 tains five and one-half grains or less of 
 aqueous vapor to each cubic foot [our 
 belt has only five grains], and on this 
 ^^;M>RiEW5.NB basis it is safe to recommend the

 ' mer-visitor to the Maine coast of so many out-door hours, seldom approaches this 
 favored spot closer than the fringe of islands which shut out the sea from its placid harbor. This is a striking ])he- 
 noinenon. Dav after dav. the famous fogs of the liay of Fundv advance to envelop the bay of Passamaquoddy, but as 
 often the rocky lieadlands clu'ch tliem in their grasp and hold them uj) to the wonder and delight of pleasure-voyagers

 you, tirsi, of this singular fog freak; next, of the 
 town's immunity from hay-fever ; and he will then 
 enter into a long dissertation upon the air and water 
 of the town, stating facts which tlie visitor will sub- 
 stantiate after a sliort sojourn. 
 
 We Iiave seen tliat the vicinity of Passama- 
 cjuoddy Hay possesses an enviable climate both as re- 
 gards temperature and iiumidity. Attention has been 
 called to the peculiar formation of tlie soil, which 
 allows no surface-water to remain, but provides, in the 
 sandstone underlying all, a natural fdter, through 
 which water passes, taking with it all deposits on the 
 surface. One cannot stir abroad without meeting gems of transparent fresh-water lakes, which surround the town and 
 suggest the suj^ply furnished at his hotel. One cannot but notice also the mighty tides which, twice each day, in their 
 twenty to thirty feet rise and fall, remove all waste far from shore. 
 
 Upon the veranda, within your room, or elsewhere, you are fanned by the prevailing south winds, which bring a 
 cool and bracing atmosphere suggestive of heaUh, happiness, and physical rejuvenation, and before which vanishes like

 The New Algon.hun.-So named from the fact that the Algonquin nation of Indians were, by the hrst 1-rench 
 discoverers, found in possession of the region lying between the Atlantic Ocean and the St. Lawrence River. The 
 popularity which St. Andrews has acquired as a summer-resort and the increasing request for accommodations have caused 
 to rise upon that magnificent site, Fort Hill, a charming summer-hotel replete with every luxury that good taste may 
 desire Completed earlv in the season of 1S89, and ready for occupancy by the first refugees from stifling ct.es, the 
 Algonquin will be found delightfully fresh, new, and inviting. From its pia..as, which form a fourteen-foot-wide promenade 
 about three sides of the hotel and three hundred and forty feet long, may be had an unobstructed view over the town 
 which lies at its feet, taking in the grand panoramic scene before d .cribed from the sunnrfit of Chamcook Mountan. 
 The dining-hall with its open fire-place occupies the south-western corner of the hotel,- the finest of locations, w.th a v,ew 
 seaward from the tall windows which extend to the floor of the veranda without. Above the first floor, which contams 
 dining-hall and parlors, ladies' reception-room, card and smoking-room, with writing room connected, offices, and general 
 reception-room opening from the large assembly-hall, connected by elevator (a cor.venience unpossessed by any Lastern

 society IS well represented. .Shining lights in all professions are there, though it is not exclusively an intellectual throng. 
 It is like an excellent salad, where each condiment is just sufficiently represented as to be apparent, yet of not too strong 
 a llavor, and lli(> whole a delight to the most epicurian taste. It is a selection of people who have found in St. Andrews 
 the spot where the highest degree of daily jileasure may be had with least effort, forming the accompaniment to the 
 ab.solute rest and healthful influences of the place.

 The vicinity of .St. .\ndrcws ;iffoitls to the iisiicniKin excellent opportnnity for indulging his ta.sto, whetlur it be 
 for the cod, the haddock, or the mackerel of the "salt seas," or the land-locked salmon, the togiic, the speckled trout, or 
 the perch of the lakes, ponds, and streams. 
 
 The pur|)osc uf this chapter is not merely to refer in a general way to what the jjiscatorial sportsman t/iav lind, 
 and then leave him to find it, if he can, but to record infurmati(m of a reliable character that the tyro or expert may 
 
 follow without wasting hi.s time listening to glowing tales of 
 
 fish that may be caught at this or that place, generally at greater 
 
 distances than he needs to travel. In nearly every instance, the 
 
 I J fiHH^'wHH^Hipi • Jf ' >RTi|^"m.ij' I information is based upon jiersonal experience, and if to the 
 
 expert certain of the hints seem unnecessary, he must remember 
 he was a beginner at some time or other, and would then have 
 been very glad iuul he been given guidance on which he coidd 
 depend. 
 
 First in order, we will take up the sea-tishing. There 
 is any muiiber of excellent fishing-craft in the harbor, whose 
 skipi^crs during the winter season follow iishing for a livelihood, but during the summer months, with their boats 
 repainted and cleaned up, seek the custom of the stranger. The.se boats are usu.ally sloop-rigged and of the "pinkie" 
 shape, — that is, sharp at both bow and stern, ranging from twenty-five to forty feet in length, draw from five to eight 
 feet of water, and are as safe as any sailing-craft afloat. For sailing or fishing, they will comfortably accommodate 
 eight or ten persons, but if it is designed to spend one or more nights aboa d, the bunk or sleeping-accommodations 
 and cook's galley will be found better adaj^ted to a party not exceeding four. There are also several very good and 
 
 83 
 
BRUflSV/l(l^ 
 
 conimodidiis schooners wliose skiiipeis seek summer custom. The lioats are large 
 and safe, witli comfortable accommodations for a party of six or eight. It is advis- 
 able to take along heavy, warm coats always, and if the trip is to cover a night or 
 two, good rough blankets. Having engaged your boat and notified the skipper 
 how long it is desired to be absent, sufficient time should be given him to get on board his bait, lines, water, wood, 
 and othei supjjlies, and in this regard the older fisherman has learned by experience to see that such necessaries and 
 luxuries arc at hand before he starts, for there is no more uncomfortable surprise than to get a dozen miles from ]3ort 
 only to discover that the coffee, tea, sugar, bread, potatoes, onions, crackers, pepper, salt, milk, beer, water, bait, fire- 
 wood, l)o\v!s, plates, s])()ons, or knives and forks have been forgotten. Neglect to fill the kerosene oil-can before sailing 
 has caused the writer more discomfort than can be well described. 
 
 .Sometimes good fishing is had at the mouth of the St. Croix River, midway between St. Andrews and the village 
 of Kobbinston, situated on the Maine border and three miles from the former place. The usual thing, however, is to 
 direct the course south-east from St. .Xndrews, across I'assamaciuoddy Hay, to either the ]>ig-Letete or Little-Letete 
 passage into the Hav of I'undy, six or eigl t miles distant, get through the jiassage either on ebb-tide, or with a strong 
 wintl if it lie tlciodtide, and then vour skipper knows where to direct liis course and drop his anchor upon the "fishing- 
 grounds,'' — or, in other words, where ])r(jfessional fishermen are catching cod or haddock for the market. Besides the two 
 species mentionvd, you are almost sure to hook the hake, the dog-fish, the cucumber, and the sculpin, none of which are 
 of any value, but serve to keej) u|) the excitement. The sardine-herring caught in the weirs about St. .Andrews is the 
 best bait, and may be had for the asking. From one himdred to one lumdncl and eighty feet of water are generally 
 upon the fishing-ground, and heavy cod-lines, with at least two hooks on each line, are used, with a small herring or 
 half of a large one for bait. The heavy sinker carries the line to the bottom, from whence it is raised two or three 
 feet, r-esently the distinct tug of the fish is felt, and hand over hand the line is drawn up, until the sea-fruit is landed, 
 glittering and struggling upon the deck. 
 
 .\t certain seasons, — late in August or during September, — schools of mackerel are aiK^ounced to be in the hay, 
 when, with a good sailing-breeze, grand sport is had with the troll-line and squid while circling through and around the 
 
 34 
 
 \' 
 
 i

\> 
 
 i 
 
 schools. In the event of a storm or gale coming up, good anchorage is near at 
 hand in innumerable natural harbors formed by the protecting rocks and reefs with 
 which the shore abounds, and as night comes on your skipper will get his lioat 
 safely anchored in one of these, 'i'hc galley-fire is lighted ; chowder antl colfee 
 are soon under way; the evening meal is disposed of; the pipes lighted, and, under the glittering canopy of stars which 
 seem to shine brighter here than elsewhere, tales of adventure, travel, caught and uncaught fish are recounted, until 
 below-dcck, the blanket and bunk are sought, where sleep, sweetened by the purity of the ocean-breeze, prepares you for 
 the next day's sport. The expense of such a trip for two or three days, including the skipper with his boat, lines, 
 
 bait, and provision, can be figured at 
 six or seven dollars per day for the 
 whole partv, a /;'(' ra/d division of 
 which amount among four makes about 
 one dollar and a half each per day. 
 
 Before this reaches the eve of 
 
 the reader, a steam yacht, o])en to 
 
 charter by sailing or fishing parties, 
 
 fi'i "-' -l/lakpS' -' will be at St. Andrews, so that those

 ,^ 5t.AnD(^eW5.N.B. i^^^j^, ^^i^ readily, in the intervening 
 
 time, have a day's fishing and not be 
 subject to wind or tide in going or returning. 
 
 Inland KisiiiNr..— In the order of their proximity to St. Andrews are the following lakes and rivers where good 
 fishing is had: First and Second t'hamcook Lakes, Third Chamcook Lake, Limeburner Lake, Bartlett's Lake, Stein's 
 Lake, Snow-shoe Lake, Welsh Lake, Cram Lake, Turner's Lake, McCullough's Lake, Creasy Lake, Digdequash River, 
 or I'ine-tree Pool. Imunnerable other lakes and streams are near St. Andrews, particulars of which the fisherman is 
 
 «5 
 
BRui^iCi^ 
 
 certain to obtain should lie visit the vicinity ; but enough are named in the fore- 
 going list to afford cortinuous sport to the angler who prefers to make his hotel 
 at St. Andrews his heackjuarters ; for to nearly every lake named he can go in 
 the early morning and return the same evening. Assuming that you are not 
 l)rovi(lcd with a jiortable or folding boat, the Indians located on the edge of "Indian Park" at .St. Andrews are 
 always glad of the opportunity to "hire out" themselves and their canoes for fishing-purposes, the ordinary charge 
 being two dollars per day for "canoe and Indian," — the fisherman, however, being expected to supply food for the 
 Indian as well as himself. 
 
 In the original order of naming the fishing-waters is recorded here hints as to each locality in detail; but it mu.st 
 be remembered that the condition of weather, and the skill and experience of the fisherman, arc concomitants of successful 
 sport on nearlv anv water. . 
 
 FiRsr CitAMCdoK Lake. — One and one-half miles long and a mile wide. During the month of June land-locked 
 salmon are readily taken with the fly, from off the rocky ledges alongside the New-15runswick Railway track, five and 
 one-half miles from St. Andrews. The train which leaves the station in the morning will take the fisherman to 
 Chamcook siding, whence directly up the track a walk of half a mile to the ledges referred to is made; or, arrangements 
 may be made with the cr/iidiictor to let you off directly at the ledge; and similar a.rangements to picl. you up in the 
 evening arc iiossible. During July, August, and September, however, a boat or canoe is necessary to reach the opposite 
 (or westerly) shore of the lake, where, by fishing in deep water with live bait or trolling with artificial bait or spoons, , the 
 land-locked salmon can be taken. During the season of iSSS a great many fine fish (land-locked salmon) were caught 
 here, Mr. Thomas Odell, of .St. Andrews, landing (jne which measured twenty-nine inches in length. Togue (or lake 
 t'out) are also ibnndant, but as a rule will only take the hook in June or Se|)teniber, unless the fisherman, with live 
 liait, and tishing in one hundred to one hundred and seventy feet of water, should happen to get over their "laying-hole," 
 when good sport is (piite probable. Fish weighing from five to nine pounds may be taken in July an<l .August. 
 
 Thk Second Chamcook I.akk, one-half mile long and one-half mile wide, may be reached by rail in the same 
 manner as the first lake ; or a very easy carry of fifteen to twenty rods from the head of the first lake takes von over

 to the second. At the foot or southerly end of the lake a large boulder, rising 
 
 five or six feet out of water, will serve as the sign-post. Directly off this, in tiftecn 
 
 to thirty feet of water, land-locketi salmon, and good trout weighing from one-half 
 
 pound to two and one-half pounds, can readily be taken. 
 
 Third Cilamcooic I.akk, one-half mile long and one-fourth mile wide, is situated on the Frye roatl about seven miles 
 
 from St. Andrews, and is best reached by i)utting boat or canoe on a wagcjn and driving to the house of Mr. (ieorge 
 
 Gibson, where the team mav be put up, and ilircctly behind 
 whose house the lake lies. June and Septend)er are the only 
 months to lish here, when tine catches of land-locked salmon 
 are made. From the northerly corner of this lake a path leads 
 through the woods, and n|) the mountain-side, a distance of 
 half a mile to the shores of 
 
 Snow-siiok Lakk. — Starting from a large boulder on 
 the western sitle of the lake, and following a straight line east 
 to the edge of, or just be\ond, the lily-pads, quantities of trout 
 weighing from one-fourth to one pound are caught with fly, 
 worm, or live bait. Near the northerly end of this lake good 
 fishing is to be had. At the southerly end, but nearly to the 
 eastern side, a good i)ath takes you, after walking a distance 
 of one hundred and hfty feet, into 
 
 Wklsh Lakk. — K.\c?llent fly-fishing at all times is found 
 near the rocks at the head of the lake, on the northern end, 
 
 around the entire shores, or in the lily-pads to the south of the rocky island situated near the northerly end. 15ait- 
 
 fishing — live bait, worms, etc. — is excellent at the southerly end of the lake, twenty to thirty feet eastward of a high 
 
 -five feet of water. Returning once more to the northern end, a

 nig 
 
^^J5S.^2Aiiyflhl^tel''F'^'^ passage between two ledges of rocks, through a somewhat tortuous channel of high 
 
 ^^^ffl^QFjll|*!^^^*|ElCl rushes, leads you after a ten minutes' paddle to 
 
 &^^S^M)(^^^^^^^^^^0^ Cram Lake, which lies side by side with Snow-shoe Lake, but divided from 
 
 ' it by a low mountainous range. The water here is too deep, and of too dark a 
 
 color to be favorable for fly-fishing, excepting in the spring and fall, when fish come to the surface ,to feed. But here 
 the angler with live bait, fish fins, or worms can have all the sport he wants. 
 
 Shut in among the mountains, these lakes stand at an altitude of over three hundred feet above sea-level, each of 
 them a crystal gem with Nature's wildest setting. No sign of civilization appears to break the majestic grandeur of the 
 pictures. No sound save the cry of the loon or the rustle of the wind through the trees on the rocky hill-side mingles 
 with the song or whistle of the fisherman, as, seated in the canoe-bow, '. .lied forward by the paddle in the hands of 
 the cojipcr-colored stoic in the stern, he lets hours or days float by, and wishes summer would never end and life be 
 one long vacation, — and this, be it remembered, within two hours of your hotel at St. Andrews. 
 
 LiMKiUJRNKK Lakk is about eight miles from St. .Andrews by the New-Hrunswick Railway, the track being directly 
 alongside the lake, (xood trouting is had here, the smallest fish du.ing the summer months taking the fly near the 
 shore, the larger fish taking live bait or worms in the deep waters. A mile farther on by rail is 
 
 liARTLKTr's I>AKK, an excellent water for trout, but of a smaller size, running from one-fourth to three-fourths of 
 a pound in weight. During lowery or rainy weather this is a good place to fish, because at such a time you are always 
 sure of a good catch. The train will take you right to it in the morning, and you can take the return train back to 
 diimcr if you wish. 
 
 Till'. L'l'iM'.R DicnKQiTASH RivRR, froiii twenty-five to thirty-five miles dist.int from St. Andrews, is reached from 
 various points on the railroad, — from Lawrence Station, which is twenty-nine miles, or at Toby Guzzie, thirty-five miles. 
 In fact, a delightful triji can be made by taking your canoe and Indian to any point upon this river near the railroad, 
 ami follow its course down to where it falls into Passamaquoddy Bay, a distance of about forty miles. Three davs will 
 cover it nicely, allowing sufficient time for casting the innumerable jiools in its course, in any of which good trout are 
 taken. The few "carries" that are necessary, over shallows or around dams, make the trip a very easy one. After 
 
 i 
 
passing under Maguiie's IJridgc, 
 
 about five miles from the river's 
 
 outlet, the course is between 
 
 moderately high hills, with farmed 
 
 tields u]K)n either side. After passing under the highway bridge 
 
 in front of the farm of Mr. Samuel Mclnish, to whom, with his 
 
 good wife, the writer is indebted for many a night's hosp.tality, the 
 
 house of Mr. J<jhn Johnston is reached. Op])()site this farm lies one 
 
 of the largest jjooIs in the river, in which a good catch of large tiout 
 
 can ordinarily be had. This spot is known as 
 
 I'ink-Trkk Pool, and may be reached direct from St. Andrews 
 over a good but hilly road, — a fourteen-mile drive. The fishe. man 
 who has descended the river Ijy canoe, after fishing Pine-Tree I'ool, 
 will have to make a carry from that point to the tide water of Passa- 
 maquoddy ]>ay, nearly a mile and a half distant, over an excellent 
 wagon-road. Ilither of the farmers, Mr. Mclnish or .Mr. Johnston, 
 will, with a hay-cart and horse, be found ready to accommodate, and 
 thus save time and labor. Once in salt water, the canoe is headed 
 for the bay, and from between the beautiful islands which stud its 
 north-eastern end St. Andrews is plainly seen, nine miles distant. 
 
 BocABEC Lake is directly on the road from .St. Andrews to 
 St. George, — a distance of nine miles. The natives tell of enormous 
 trout caught here early in the season, but the writer hesitates to 
 offer any evidence on the subject, never having succeeded in taking any of them; but white perch, many of them 
 
 cares to attend to. Following this road between two and three miles

 farther on, and after descending a long gradual hill, the Hocabec River, with its 
 highway Iiridge, comes in sight. Keeping up the left bank of the river for a mile, 
 tlie road crosses the liocabec at IJryan's abandoned mill; turning short to the lei*- 
 and following the road up a long hill for a distance of two miles (always keeping 
 to the right), the house of Mr. Krskinc is reached. For a trifling gratuity, one of his boys or hired men will show 
 you the road, over which a horse and wagon can be driven to within thirty rods of 
 
 Crkasv Lakk. — Within one hundred and fifty feet of the northern end of the lake, and midway between the 
 east and west shores, in from twenty to twenty-five feet of water, your basket may be quickly filled with fine large trout. 
 Nearer the shore the fly-cast is very effective, but in the deep water the writer has taken the larger fish with live bait. 
 McC!iTi,i,(UT(;n's Lakf. is within a coui)le of miles of Creasy Lake, and has a rcpucation for plenty of fine trout, 
 but as the writer cannot s|)eak of it from experience, he leaves the fisherman who visits it to follow his natural instincts. 
 No attempt is made here to guide the angler to tlie more distant fishing-grounds of Clreen River, the Tobique, 
 Lake iMifojiia, and dozens of other waters within a day's journey of St. Andrews. For to all these places camping-outfits 
 are necessary. ]5ut if the information given leads the fisherman to visit the places here mentioned, the writer is confident 
 he will return another and another season, bringing with him his friends until these waters are as well known as many 
 much-vaunted lakes and streams possessing not a tithe of the merit of those about St. Andrews.

 CHAPTER VI. 
 
 R Bit of H'stohy. 
 
 In the early part of the sixteenth century, much elation was felt in the rival countries of England and Erance 
 over the accjuisition, by discovery and settlement, of vast foreign dominions in America. Both nations coveted the saine 
 territory and set up rival claini>, using all jiossible means to establish, each for itself, the firmer foothold upon the soil 
 of the new continent. Sir Humphrey Gilbert had taken possession, for the Crown, of Newfoundland and the region two 
 
 hundred leagues around, while the King of Erance had commissioned the Marquis Dc 
 J,a Roche to concjuer and colonize all the region bordering on River St. Lawrence. 
 Thus, with each nation determined to hold its own and acquire more, it is not won- 
 derful that existing rivalry between the nations engendered strife which resulted in 
 great excitement, and many fierce encounters, if not actual war. 
 
 On March 7, 1604, two vessels set sail from the Old World bearing Pierre IJe 
 Gast (Sieur Des Monts), the well-beloved friend of King llcnry IV. of Erance, who had 
 by roval jjaten*; llie previous year granted to the Sieur Des Monts all the American 
 tcrritorv between the 40th and 46th degrees of north latitude, with the royal authority 
 to colonize and govern it according to his own judgment. With the voyagers came 
 Samuel t'hamplain, as pilot, one of the earliest discoverers of the country. After an ocean-voyage of two months, the 
 fleet landed on the southerly side of the i)eninsula of N(na Scotia. Erom this point they sailed along the shore of 
 Nova Scotia, exjjlored the Pay of Eundy, and thence proceeded to the waters of I'assamaquoddy, which Des Monts and 
 his men called a " jca of salt water." This was the first expedition to these waters. I'assiiig through the outer fringe 
 of islands, which stood guard as today, sheltering the calm within from the boisterous sea without, the ships crossed the 
 bay, even as today the steamboat follows in the wake of those of long ago, and ascended the Schoodic (St. Croix) 
 River, passing within pistol-shot of the site of the present town of St. Andrews. Arriving, then, at a small island some 
 
 — -Cvr^e^F^mv 
 
 3t 
 
three miles above St. An- 
 drews, near the American 
 shore, Chaniplain selected it 
 as a suitable spot for defence, 
 disembarked liis forces and fortified it against encroachment 
 from the Indians. This island (which they called .St. Croix, 
 from the fact that immediately above small streams flowed 
 crosswise to join the larger river, thus giving it the form of the 
 hcjly cross) was as C"hami)lain describes it, "about three leagues 
 in circuit." One readily finds this spot today. It liears a light 
 maintained by the American gbvernment to mark the channel to 
 navigation, which may be seen from your hotel, and vestiges of the 
 earth-works still remaining mark it authentically; but the "three 
 leagues in circuit " have been greatly reduced by the flow of the 
 river and the tides, and future gener.itions shall look for it 
 beneath the surface, where lie many of the points and shores 
 marked by tradition as the sceres of fierce battles between hostile 
 bands of Indians when this island's history was making. Its 
 name, too, has been dropped, and assumed by the river, while 
 the island itself is content to bear in its stead the name of a 
 belle of New Ihunswick, — Theodosia (" Docie's," for short). 
 Neutral Island, also, is a name the island bears, from the fact 
 that during the long-disputed boundary question, when for fifty- 
 eight years diplomats strove for an amicable settlement of the 
 boundary-line between the United Stales and the British depend- 
 
 TA^5AMA()UO0OY BAY- jU> „ 
 ,,0H r\l|<l5TeHS ISLAND 
 
 3» 
 
encies in America, this island 
 was lield as neutral ground, 
 and enjoyed all the rights and 
 privileges of no man's land. 
 
 Upon this island Chaniplain chose to winter the expedition. The 
 Indians were disposed to be friendly to the newcomers ; hut of this 
 the expedition were in doubt, and took every precaution to guard 
 against attack. I'rodigality in l)uilding their winter-quarters had 
 caused a dearth of wood, and, as the long cold winter of the north- 
 / ern climate progressed, the water-courses were frozen, and the men 
 were obliged to cross to the mainland for l)oth wood and water. 
 This they did at night, using every precaution against the supjxjsed 
 forest foe. To add to the liorror of thjiir situation, a new and 
 deadly disease now came upon them. Tiiirty-six of the little ])and 
 k;uccumbed before a remedy was found in a simple antiscorbutic, — 
 the boughs of the spruce steeped and drank. This medicine was 
 K^ recommended to their use by the Indians. The bodies of the thirty- 
 gJBr- six victims to the only epidemic (that of scurvy) which ever visited 
 the vicinity of St. Andrews were carried at night to the mainland 
 and there buried. When the survivors of the little party of seventy 
 (Ogilly says ninety-seven) had sufficiently recovered their strength, 
 l)es Monts, about the middle of May, 1605, set sail in search of 
 a warmer clime. For more than a century and a half follow- 
 ing this attempt at colonization, this was practically a forgotten region. Meanwhile, other adventurers from Catholic 
 France had visited the Magaguadavic River, farther east, and, as was the custom with discoverers from Catholic countries, 
 
 ^^DEitMimsTEi^ilswNDP^T.AriDReWr'^.M ^

sv^iO; 
 
 set up the cross at its mouth. From this incident th( river became known as the 
 St. Croi.x, and as such, when confounded with the St. Croix of Des Monts, caused 
 the knot which required so much diplompcy to unravel. Previous to the peace of 
 1783 very few settlers existed within the present limits of the town. Immedi- 
 ately after the close of the treaty establishing the independence of the United States of America, the Loyalists, as the 
 adherents of the Crown were called, deserting their homes and in many cases their all in the new country, crossed the 
 border into British dominion. Very many of them settled at .St. Andrews, and there are houses now standing in the 
 town whose frames were brought from Castine by their Loyalist owners and set uj) anew at St. Andrews ; while in 
 the Knglish church, conspicuously ])laced above the entrance within, there stands the royal coat-of-arms, brought by 
 that stanch Loyalist, Parson Samuel Andrews, from the church at Wallingford, Conn., when upon the establishment of 
 American independence he removed from the republic to St. Andrews. In the year 1784, but one year after the treaty 
 of peace, the town-site of St. Andrews was granted to William Gammon, who subsequently re-divided it among three 
 associates, — J'arr, Morris, and P>ulkley. Not content with following cattle-paths until they w^ere accepted as regular 
 public ways, the fathers of St. Andrews called a competent engineer, and on the pleasantly sloping hillside overlooking 
 the bay ])lanne(! the site of .1 future city. 
 
 CHAPTER VII. 
 
 How TO Herch Thehe. 
 
 The facilities for reaching St. Andrews, by numerous highways of steel and pathways through ocean waves, make 
 it all the more desirable as a seaside resort. In going and returning from St. Andrews, there need be no retracing 
 of steps, unless preferred; for a well-organized system of tours, arranged by the many lines in interest, affords a choice 
 of routes to the traveller, and allows the going journey to be made by rail, the return by water, or 7'ice versa ; or by rail 
 in both directions by different paths. There is no reason why St. Andrews should not form the resting-retreat for 
 people of diversified tastes. For the inhabitants of the immense territory reached by the Canadian Pacific it has the especial 
 
 84' 
 
attraction of forming the only Atlantic-coast resort upon that great transcontinental 
 route. The i)eoi)ic of Montreal and adjacent territory who go a-sunimering are 
 especially favored with facilities for reaching St. Andrews. For them, there is the 
 choice between the Short Line (Canadian Pacific), which in fourteen hours, without, 
 change, will the coming season put a parlor-car between the city by the St. Lawrence and St. Andrews by the sea, or 
 the- White-iMountain route from Montreal to I'ortland, also in parlor-car without change, through the grand scenery of the 
 Crawford Notch, passing directly through the heart of the White Mountains by daylight, and connecting in the Palace 
 
 Union Depot at Portland with mid-day trains, offering every con- 
 venience of through Pullman buffet cars, which convey one to 
 St, Andrews, arriving the same evening. The water route — 
 that by the large, stanch, and finely furnished side-wheel steamers 
 of the International Line — may also be taken from the ter- 
 minus of the mountain line, — Portland, — and, bearing away, 
 reach Kastport without intervening tiresome waits, where the 
 smaller steamers of the Frontier Steamboat Company connect 
 for .St. Andrews, twelve miles across Passamaq noddy liay. 
 There is pleasure in thus travelling. One sits in his steamer- 
 chair upon the upper deck, or beneath the convenient awnings, 
 with book on lap, lazily enjoying the scene as the huge steamer 
 skirts the Maine coast, or studying the queer saline types of 
 humanity ;;o often met in the cruise along the eastern shore. Pilgrims from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, New- 
 England, New ^'ork, and points south take some one of the many lines converging at Boston and there board one of 
 the through trains of the Boston and Maine Railroad for a run of twelve hours through the beautiful scenery afforded 
 by Northern New England in summer. Embarking at Boston in the morning, the run will be made through by daylight, 
 and St. Aidrews reached with its decline; or, a refreshing night's sleep may be enjoyed by the patrons of the Pullman train 
 

 ■^T^-^-^^Jl^ 
 
 
 
 leaving lioston at suvcii p.m. cacli evening of the week (Sundays induclcd), and reach- 
 i'-, .St. Andrews at noon — l)Ut not running through to St. Andrews on Sunday 
 morning. '\W entire journey may be accomplished in finely appointed Pullman 
 buffet cars upon all day trains or in ruUman's finest sleeping-cars at night. The 
 
 International Line of steamers above referred to iias its western terminal at I'.oston and makes tri-weekly trips east. 
 
 The re.-^idents of the eastern i)art of the Province of 
 
 New lirunswick and of Nova Scotia find in the New- 
 
 Urunswick Railway (and with it the lines leading from 
 
 the city of St. John and reaching all provincial points) 
 
 a safe and sjjeedv p.iihway towaril .St. Andrews, while the 
 
 peoi)le of Northern Maine look to this same railroad as 
 
 their means of reaching the sea-shore. The steamers of 
 
 the International Line also may be taken at St. John. 
 
 reaching St. Andrews upon the westward irij). The 
 
 transportation comjianies which make up the route to 
 
 be passed over are no embryo roads, with faulty equip- 
 ment, necessitating slow time and tedious journeving, 
 
 but trunk-lines of steel, over which the powerful loco- 
 motives draw the elegantly furnished trains at a speed 
 
 which is the essence of exhilarating motion. Altocethcr, -Kuty-'-fr^'r^,^-^-'^ :..^ip.y^'A v/;,.'..- .•,„ti3> 
 
 the journey by means of the elegant trains and steamers 
 
 so far from being irksome, becomes one of the most enjoyable experiences of the ouiing.

 A plaiicc nt tlic accompanying map shows St. Andrews 
 to be situated on a |)eninsiila live miles in lengtii, extending 
 into l'assanui(|nockly liay, which is seventeen miles long by 
 six in width, anil in |>oint of attraction has but few rivals, 
 with strong points in common and being often compared 
 with the Hay of Xajiles. 
 
 The outer edge of the bay is encircled by mountainous 
 island ranges, which serve to guard both the bay and 
 peninsula from the objectionable fogs of the eastern coast. 
 During the sunnner months cool breezes prevail, the ther- 
 mometer seldom reaching 85 degrees Fahrenheit. 
 
 'i'he entire vicinity is traversed by the finest roads. 
 Salt and fresh w? fishing is had within an hour's sail or 
 ride, while the bay and lakes afford unsurpassed yachting 
 anil boating facilities. 
 
 The entire absence of mosquitoes and malaria, the 
 general air of reslfulness, together with the curative i)rop- 
 erties of the balsam-laden atmosphere, have made St. 
 Andrews long and extensively known as an elysiuni for the 
 hay-fever patient, jaded tourist, pleasure-seeker, and sports- 
 man. 
 
 The town, of 1,700 population, numerous hotels and 
 boarding-houses, has five excellent churches, schools, livery- 
 stables, stores, markets, telegraph office, and a weekly news- 
 paper, "The St. Andrews lieacon," while yachts in charge 
 of reliable captains, canoes with or without their Indian 
 owners, and row-boats can be hired on very reasonable 
 terms. 
 
 SUdUDEH HoffiES. 
 
 Probably no point along the coast of Maine and New 
 15runswick has a more favored location than St. Andrews. 
 The old place has been a sort of " Sleeping Heauty " of the 
 seaside for generations. It was marked and admired long 
 before it was dreamed of as a possible summer-resort, and 
 always has had a certain patronage of pleasure-seekers, 
 even in times when summer excursions, trips, or vacations 
 had little or no plan or part in the life of any class. 
 
 Its marked characteristics led to the formation of the 
 St. Andrews Land Company, and their purchase of property 
 in the choicest locations, with a view of securing for those 
 desiring summer homes, selected spots from every one of 
 which panoramic views are had. Close to the water in 
 Indian Point Park, 30 feet above sea-level, and scattered 
 along the rising ridge of Barrack Hill, 150 feet high, until 
 reaching the amphitheatre of encircling hills 220 to 250 
 feet above tide-water, are presented building-sites which 
 are adapted to meet the most diversified tastes, and can be 
 purchased subject to reasonable and proper restrictions as 
 to minimum of area and minimum cost of buildings to be 
 erected. 
 
 Plans of the properties may be seen at the Company's 
 offices in Boston and St. Andrews. This descriptive book 
 will be mailed by addressing
