Excerpt from Papers Read Before the Lancaster County Historical Society, September 2, 1904, Vol. 9: The Wabank House, Minutes of the September Meeting

Lancaster has always had its upper 400, of which half a dozen may be the genuine article and the remainder bogus, but that is something not perti nent to the matter of this short paper. Some of these - those who could afford it and some who could not - be took themselves to the Springs and the mountains when midsummer came along, and forgot at Saratoga and else where the little worries that may have disturbed their waking hours at home. It finally dawned on some of them that perhaps Lancaster could in some way be turned into a summer resort, which would not necessitate their going else where for rest and health, but by which an honest penny might be turned into their own pockets. True, we had no medicinal springs, hot orcold, no waters to which invalids might resort, but we had good water and scenery equal to the best. They realized half a hundred years ago, more fully, I fear, than we do to-day, that no more beautiful river runs its waters to the ocean than the Cones toga, and that no more genuinely at tractive scenery than is to be found along its banks exists anywhere in the State.
