Miss Murray in the Adirondack^. In 1855 the Honorable Amelia M. Murray, Maid of Honor to QueenVictoria, made a tour of the lake region of the Adirondacks with a partyin charge of Gov. Horatio Seymour. What Miss Murray calls theirGypsy expedition began at Saranac Lake, and the party emerged fromthe wilderness at Boonvillc. Her narrative of the trip abounds withinterest, but we quote only one passage:. Another short portage brought us below the falls of the MooseRiver into its rapid stream. Here we had only one boat. The Governor(for our other gentlemen had been obliged to leave us before we enteredthe chain of lakes) walked on to make some arrangements at ArnoldsFarm, and we two ladies, in charge of Air.
