Excerpt from Guide to the Ridge Hill Farms, Wellesley, Mass: And Social Science Reform; September, 1877
But no visitors will be permitted to enter the Grotto, nor the Norino Tower, the Camera pr other buildings, except upon payment of the small service fee (10 cents), necessary to pay the one - half cent to each of the twenty attendants there required, both as guides and to prevent the thefts and other indiscretions which have been so frequent and annoying. This regulation avoids all necessity of gifts-to employés, and is objectionable only to that class who prefer to live at others' expense.
