One Visitor's First Impressions... |
||
"We cut yesterday with about 120 men more than a mile through a forest hitherto deemed impenetrable. When we emerged from it there opened a prospect superior to anything in the world I believe. A perfect view of the Bay of Fundy on one side, a very extensive view of the River Saint John with the falls, grand lake and islands on the other, - in front the fort, which is a beautiful object on a high hill, and all settlements about the town with the ships, boats, etc., in the harbour - it was positively the most magnificant and romantic scene I have ever beheld... On viewing a prospect like this, an infidel would acknowledge that only God could effect it". |
