I can testify that on the three-score Sabbaths when I have been called upon to conduct the services, I have never found a more inspiring auditory.
It is no easy thing to put the external beauties of Mohonk upon paper.
The estate covers four thousand acres, and is intersected with about fifty miles of fine carriage drives.

The garden, which contains a dozen acres, is ablaze during the most of the season with millions of flowers--many of them of rare variety.

As the glory of Saratoga is its springs, of Lake George its islands, of Trenton Falls the amber hue of its waters, so the glory of Mohonk is its rocks.

The little lake is a crystal cup cut out of the solid conglomerated quartz.

Its shores are steep quartz rocks rising fifty feet perpendicularly from the water.
