The pleasant residences of 
     
     the Forget family are prominent 
     
     on the shelving hillside. The 
     
     balustraded promenade, high up, 
     
     with its projecting bastion or 
     
     observation terrace, its garden, 
     
     walks, seats and prettily ar- 
     
     ranged grounds, is a delightful 
     
     point from which to enjoy a 
     
     commanding view of the shore, 
     
     the wharf and the broad vista 
     
     of waters. A short walk from each end of the main or shore prom- 
     
     enade brings out at little hamlets or groupings of cottages of the 
     
     native residents. They present many points of interest for visitors, 
     
     and pleasant rambles may thus be enjoyed by those who would see 
     
     how quaint a life the people of remote parts in this province still 
     
     enjoy. 
     
    

    
     A short distance to the north of the wharf there is a fine 
     
     stretch of clean sand, backed by rocks and turf. There are gen- 
     
     erally low piles of neuly-smvn lumber, stacked up near the wharf 
     
     end of this beach, where children may have jolly times playing 
     
     ‘hide-alul-seek,’ or climbing and building houses on the shore from 
     
     drift-wood, ‘ends’ and cuttings. A walk of but half a mile leads to 
     
     the attractive little stream that here falls into the St. Lawrence, and 
     
     meets real waves as it plunges into its seaward goal. Across the 
     
     little stream the stray logs that have grounded, the rocks, the cot- 
     
     tages on the hill, the rustling trees, the soaring height of the near— 
     
     hills, the bright: green of the small point, the darker green of the 
     
     great cape beyond, the dim outline of the far-away mountain range 
     
     and the broad stretch of cool waters dotted with gracefully floating 
     
     vessels; all these make ideal summer surroundings. It is a pleasant 
     
     spot. A great. charm for many will be the simplicity of all, unspoiled 
     
     b_v crowds~fashion left out. Children may here realize all the joys 
     
     of early youth; and adults, as they rest on the beach, will live over 
     
     again the joyous days of the care-free long ago. Few who roam the 
     
     delightful strand would know it was not the seashore. It is salt 
     
     water, of course; and it may be called an inner sea without the 
     
     decided range of temperature experienced on the Open Atlantic 
     
     coast.
