Campobello Island

​ ​Now one of the most famousu and most popular summer resorts on the Eastern coast lies in Passamaquoddy Bay, about seventy miles north-east of Mt. Desert, and is about two miles distant from Eastport in the State of Maine.

The island is irregular in shape and its shores abound in exquisite details of scenery. There are beaches, chasms, coves and deep inlets.It is ten miles long, from two to three miles wide and has a circumference of about thirty miles. To the south-east lies the open sea, only here and there broken by islands and reefs, while to the north lie the placid waters of Passamaquoddy thickly sown with islands of great and varied beauty. The surface of the island is broken, and the hills, many of them very abrupt, are covered with a dense growth of firs and larches and are delightfully picturesque and interesting. The giant cliffs that overhang the sea for many miles are wonderfully fine and excel in height and grandeur any along the coast excepting those at Grand Menan, eight miles distant. The views of these cliffs alone would well repay the visitor for the journey there. Until within a few years this beautiful island was the property of an English family, the land being leased to ten- ants, chiefly fishermen and farmers, most of them industrious and thrifty. The Company has expended large amounts of money in improvements on the Island in order to introduce it to the world as one of the most charming and pictu-

resque spots, for Summer life, yet offered. Many miles of ​Page:Campobello Island (microform) (IA cihm 41927).pdf/8 ​ ​St. John or Grand Menan; various lines of steamers centre
