Excerpt from In and Out of Ithaca: A Description of the Village, the Surrounding Scenery and Cornell University

The pages that follow have been prepared in the belief that it would be a source of gratification to many to be able to procure in convenient form a description of the village of Ithaca, with the rare and interesting scenery surrounding it, and also some comprehensive account of Cornell University. The facts here brought together it is hoped may be of service.

If the reader finds the first chapter on the geology of the region, interesting, his thanks, with mine, are due to Mr. G.K. Gilbert, of the Geological Survey, who has kindly given the writer some of the results of his own studies in this region. Chapters XXIV to XXVII inclusive, and the greater part of Chapter XXVIII, were written entirely by Mr. Geo. M. Marshall.
