All these hare disappeared, except the springs, and they are no longer frequented. One supplies pure limestone water; the other a water strongly impregnated with sulphur, iron and magnesia.It was perhaps of these springs that a noted European specialist, to consult whom a chronic Invalid crossed the seas In the early days, said: “Too don’t needto go to Carlsbad; you have the right springs near home.” The springs were named after the wife of the original owner,Jacob Gardenhonr.
