Drive to the reservoir and Scranton praised by old columnist
Twenty five years after William H. Seward's death the writer notes a past mistake about describing a Boulevard to reservoir drive. The piece warns young men to keep attention on the road and horse, laments narrow stretches, and defends the route as delightful despite its excitement. It mentions social pressure for drives and adds a postscript to adjust the matter.
