Excerpt from Rural Resorts and Summer Retreats: Along the Line of the Cumberland Valley Railroad, Including Picnic Parks and Pleasure Places The Valley. Nearly half a century has elapsed since the Cumberland Valley Railroad Company first broke ground for its pioneer enterprise in railroading, and laid the first rail of its line beyond the western shore of the Susquehanna river, upon a survey entering and hiding itself in the bosom of one of the richest and sweetest valleys that the sun of heaven shines upon; rich in the minerals of its mountains, and their pleasure nooks, and summer retreats; the fruits of its fields; the beauties of its scenery, and in the store of its traditional and historical lore; sweet with its healthful breezes which make music in its rustling grain fields and grow heavy with the breath of its flowers - a region where, when summer falls, "It seems always afternoon." In the shadow of its mountains, spread out like a panorama are views which combine all the elements of rural beauty unadorned, verging into the improvements of a modest civilization. Fields lie there, in fertility and in fairness equal to any within the confines of the Middle or Western States, through the emerald, breadth of which wind in sinuous course, like threads of molten silver, two principal streams with their numerous tributaries, which civilization permits still to bear the names that the Indian gave them, as if to appease the still unexorcised spirit of his wrongs.
