twenty-five who visited the increasing y
famous Seal Rock property ten miles south

finest beaches In tho world, with the waves
telling their -never ceasing tale on the right
and a fertile country on the left, rugged ami
healthful, the leal Rocks rose before us in
oil their unsurpassed picturesqueness Na
ture did her beat in arranging them. Stretch
ing out into the sea they form two of the
most beautiful coves imaginable, each about
a thousand feet long. Between them the
waves roll up the beach, making bathing
places, attractive for their convenience,
beauty and safety. Facing these are the
Seal Rock lots of which Mr. Brasficld has
the management All of them ana
located for cottages, sloping gently toward
tne oeacn. 1 he soil is fine and there are
plentlv shell beds on the property to sup

the convenience of pleasure seekers, and
around the place raises prolificly everything
one can wish for the table, flowers as weil
as eatables, and this can be done on any of
