Description
Excerpt from Along the Bowstring, or South Shore of Lake Superior
Bay. O L D M U N I S ing is a distinctly drowsy old place that had one era of bustle and briskness and then went to sleep, to find the hand of Time now rudely awakening it to begin a new career of activity. But it is all the bet ter that it is such a place as it is, for no new, fresh painted modern village would suit its sur roundings so well. Did my.reader ever happen to come across The Castle of Indolence, so as to be able to note the similarity between the poet''s description and this beautiful region of the Pictured Rocks? Read the lines while you are looking at Munising Bay, or when you are sailing leisurely amid the wondrous rocks.
You will never forget one or the other afterward, for one is the written echo of the other.
