GAHAGENS WRITE FROM
HUNT. NEW YORK
'Am*-' .
Mrs. Arthur Gahagen writes
from herhome in Hunt, N. Y.r
where Mr. Gahagen, formerly
with the N.C. here, has an auto re
pair shop.
Nome friends will be interested
in a thousand mile trip which
they took recently into the Blue
Ridge Mountains in Virginia, vis
iting many historical spots. They
visited the Battlefield Crystal Cav
erns, the famous Rattlesnake
Farm. Mrs. Gahagen refers to the
Caverns as an “underground won
derland, a grotto of stalactites’*
and full of historical lore. They
were taken half a mile under
ground.
They followed the Skyline Drive
which varies from an altitude of
600 feet to 4000 feet. Every inch
of the way was filled with history
of the days of the Revolution, sta
ted Mrs. Gahagen, and very in
spiring. They drove through
Pennsylvania and to Sherman,
N. Y., to visit relatives and
watched with fascination seven
beaver dams and the lake they
had built.
The Gahagens send greetings to
their friends in Nome.
