MONTGOMERY HOUSE,
Flve Mlle River, Fall-field 00., Conn.
I HAVE recently leased for a term of years a. new
and eommodlous Hotel, 8% miles from Nor-walk
and 5 miles from Stamford, (a new sta “Howev-
- .ton,”-has just been opened within 34 mile of the Ho-
tel). The House has been furnished with new furni-
ture throughout. It is located on the banks of Five
Mlle River, with a frontage of 150 feet. House 50x45
feet, three stories and basement. It has a. command-
fng view of Long Island Saundraud in close proximi.
t to a desirable beach for bathiu . By the N ew York
New Haven it. is re ed in from 19.: to 2
hours. There are also plying constantly between N.
X; 0in and Not-walk, two steamers, one lesvini'every
y, morning and evening, also, a sloop from t e Ho-
tel once a week. thus afi‘ordlug a variety of conveyan-
ces to and from the city. Within 3‘ o a mile of the
Hotel are two churches, as well as numerous residences
of highly respectable families, forming a settlement
at once agreeable and delightful to the sojourner. My
experience as a public caterer, both South and East, is
that of acknoweledged ability to keep a first—class
House. There are numerous drives in this neighbor-
hood that are unsurpassed ; those who appreciate
aquatic sports, will find the boating and fishing une-
qualed. The terms of board are accommodating, and
vary according to rooms. For further parflculars’en-
