Text Appearing Before Image:
where the current is very swift)for passengers who have come by the Grand Trunk R. R. from Mon-treal and other points in Canada. These trains run on eastern standardtime, which is one hour faster than ours. The trip through the lake is a decided change from what it hasbeen for the last six hours, and is a relief from the mental, strain ofseeing too much at one time. From this out all points of interestare to be seen on the port (or left hand) side, until we reach Cheboygan,the Canadian shore of the lake being too far away to be seen. Weget outside, and when abreast of Fort Gratiot light the steamer isheaded to N. ^- W., on which course we run 3^ hours, the outline of theshore being in sight all the way. This brings us to within 5 milesof SandBeach, when we haul in to N. W. x N. for the harbor of refuge.The captain keeps well out into the lake as he likes lots of searoom, these palatial iron steamers not being obliged to conform tothe old adage Small boats must keep near the shore. 56
