FULTON COUNTY NEWS. ? ATTRACTIVE SCENERY. Interesting Description of Trol ley Ride, by J. W. Brown, of Knobsville. Levin, Bucks CouNTY.October 10, 1902. August 27, 1902, Wil Jiam Martz, Daniel Hamill, and the writer began to work for the American Teleplioue and Tele graph Company on a line extend ing from Newtown Square, Dela ware county, Pa., to Poughkeep sie.N.Y. The line passes through the counties of Chester, Mont gomery and Bucks and crosses the Delaware river at Point Pleas ant. We are now within ten miles of the river. The line crossed the Schuylkill river at Port Kennedy. An unbroken succession of beau tiful landscapes and objects of historic interest mark the prog ress of the tourist from Philadel phia to Sanatoga when he makes tho trip on a trolley car over the Schuylkill Valley Traction Com pany's line. In fact, it is doubt ful whether there is another stretch of country of the same length in the United States that possesses so many objects of in terest for lovers of the pictur esque and historical. Boarding a Chestnut Hill trol ley car of the Union Traction Company's line anywhere along Eighth street in Philadelphia, the tourist is taken between miles of beautiful city and semi-suburban residences to the junction with the Schuylkill Valley Traction Company's line. After a short run, the little village of Barren Bill with its quaint, old roadside inn, is reached ; at this point, con nections are made with cars run ning to Mauayunk and Wissa hickon. Tho main line continues through a thickly populated farm ing country to Plymouth Meet ing, where can be found one of t ho oldest Friends' meeting hous es in the country. At this point, u branch running to Conshohock ( ii taps the main line. Thence it is a short run to the bustling bor ough', of Norristown, a city in point of population a borough in form of government.. As the cars approach the borough, they pass over "Sandy Hill, "from the sum mit of which a beautiful bird's eye view of the town and ' the wiuding Schuylkill at. its feet can bo seen. From this vantage point on a clear day, tho statue of Wil liam Penn on the top of City Hall tower, Philadelphia, seventeen miles away, can be easily dis cerned The ride from Norristown to Collegeville, a distance of eight miles, is as pretty a one as the most exacting could demand. Tho route runs through some of the richest of Montgomery coun ty's rich farming land. A short distance above Norristown, it passes the palatial residences of John F. Betz and F. A. Poth, two wealthy Philadelphia brewers. Upon a height midway between Norristown and Collegeville the car stops for a few moments to permit the passengers to gaze up on a sight that is as marvelous as it is beautiful. The view embra ces seven counties Montgom ery, Berks, Bucks, Chester, Phil adelphia, Lehigh, and Northamp ton. At Collegeville, an atractive lit tle borough, thevhoraeof many wealthy men, in the summer time a popular resort for tourists lured thither by the oeauties of Pet kio men creek, is situ atedUr sinus col logo, one of the oldest institutions of loarniug in the state. Immedi ately above Collegeville is the borough of Trappe, wherein is (uxceptiug but oue) the oldest ';htiroh in America St. Augus tine's Lutheran. A visit to the venerable struct vi e, and the old grave yard adj;i t ent, where can bo found many furious epitaphs over a century old, will renav anvone. Tho route from Trappe to San Rtoga Park, a distance of seven miles, lies through mora rich fanning land. Sanatoga Park is ouo of the most attractive resorts oT its kind in eastern Pennsylvau v. tin natural beauties of a pict Hroquo spot having been en tnucod by the art of mart. . 1 rom Sanatoga Park to the bus mess centre of Pottstown, anoth- r, big and progressive Montgom ery county borough, is a distance 'f but four miles. Tho entire distance from Chestnut Hill to Sanatoga is twenty-four miles. The writer had tho pleasure of vnitiug Valley Forgo, the head quarters of Washington, during toe winter of 1777-78, and board el at tho house that was Gen. JMifllin's headquarters, and near v hk-n wasGon. Wayuq'8 quarters tint winter, GOD SAVE THE COMMON ""' WEALTH.
