I staid at Saratoga four weeks, and worked away at the water all the
time.
The more i drinkt, the less i wanted to.
The water ain't so numerous at Saratoga, az it iz at Long Branch, and
that iz the reason whi they bottle it.
I stopt at the Grand Union Hotel while at Saratoga, and noticed several
people thare.
This hotel iz kept by the _Lelands_, and iz kept just az i should keep
hotel, if i waz a going tew keep one.
I always thought it waz dredful easy to keep a good hotel, and after
staying 4 weeks at the Grand Union I know it iz.
The clerks at this hotel are a hansum set ov phellows and they all told
me they knew how to drink the water.
I shall cum here next summer and stop at this same hotel, if they will
let me, and i shall keep comeing year after year, until i learn how to
finally drink the water.
From Saratoga i went to Lake George.
I went by the Adirondax ralerode, and found it a most delitesum route,
besides being mutch the cheapest.
One reason ov this waz bekauze the superintendant ov the rode presented
me with a pass to go and cum.
I kan say to all who are going to Lake George to drink the waters, yu
had better go by the Adirondax route yu will git less dust and more
shade; yu will find good stages, jolly drivers, kind agents, and just az
like az not, a free pass for yourself and wife.
I reached Lake George in time to drink before dinner, and couldn't taste
enny psalt in the water.
