Excerpt from Abbott's Guide to Ottawa and Vicinity: With Map and Illustrations

With the single exception of Quebec, Ottawa is undoubtedly the most beautifully situated of any Canadian city. It is surrounded by magnificent natural scenery, striking from its variety. And not often sur passed Iin beauty. Standing at the northerly point of Parliament. Hill, or. Better still, from the tower of the Parliament Buildings, one sees the magnificent Ottawa winding its course from the islands in the far distance at the 'left, down the Chaudiere Falls. Past the great lumbering industries before one's feet, till it flows underneath the Alexandra bridge 'at Nepean Point, then, joined by the Gatineau river, it passes the pretty little village of Gatineau Point, whence it continues on its course to meet the St. Lawrence.
