Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Bulletin of the Essex Institute, Vol. 20 On the seventh day of September last, after many vexatious postponements due to threatening and forbidding weather, the second field day of the season occurred at Montserrat, upon the hospitable invitation of our enterprising townsman, Henry W. Peabody, Esq., who has within a decade acquired there and laid out for suburban residence a romantic tract of some two hundred acres. The locality proved to be accessible and attractive. The Naumkeag Street Railway Company provided barges from their Rantoul Street terminus at the Gloucester Railroad crossing, and the Boston & Maine Corporation stopped several trains each way at their new station at Montserrat for the accommodation of the Institute. This picturesque little station was erected in 1885 from designs by Mr. Arthur Rotch, a summer resident and eminent Boston architect. It owes its floral decorations to the good taste and public spirit of Mrs. William D. Pickman and a few other summer sojourners in the neighborhood, and the woodbines with which its columns as well as the rustic arbor which roofs over its mineral spring are festooned, to that of Mr. Peabody, whose hospitality to the Institute was most liberal.
