Old Forge, Aug. 26th.—There hangs in Dodd’s Camp a handsome young buck weighing 150 pounds, which was shot in First Lake at 10 o’clock Saturday night by Mr. Tibbett, Gen. Harrison’s private secretary. The deer was floating in the lake where Dr. Nicolls shot a yearling last Wednesday night… The Rev. John R. Paxton of New York conducted services in the Adirondack League club parlor yesterday morning. Gen. Harrison and all of his family were present and took part in the services. Gen. Harrison was the most attentive listeners at the services.

Local history provides a window into the pleasant, forested recreation of General Harrison.
