Notwithstanding the heavy doing (sic), lumbermen are doing a good business generally, this winter, The piles of lumber on the several landings are making a good show. Men are arriving every day, looking for work, and all seem to get a chance without waiting long.
Messrs. Morrison & Hunting run a line of stages to Lily Bay and Roach River and Messrs. Clark and Hilton have a line on the same route. Mr. Savage and Mr. Luce both run a stage from Kineo to the head of the lake, so that travelers have good accommodation to all points of the lake.
Mr. Walker’s line of stages to Kineo are having plenty to do. He runs a daily stage that has full loads each way. The road across the ice is well bushed, so that travelers have no trouble keeping to the road.
January 27, 1887.
