Thisfine old road, extending all along the shore, keeps throughout anote of peace and pleasant order. Its great days have returned,for under its quiet elms dash daily a thousand motor cars, whilehordes of trolley tourists traverse it each week. Larchmont is a pleasant shore resort and yacht station; dayand night the water pageant of the Sound passes to and fro be-fore it. A car runs to the harbor and yacht clubs. Next are passed Mamaroneck, named after an Indian chief;Rye (Colonial Inn), where still stands the old Haviland Inn, thefirst of many stopping places of Washington on his historic saun-ter thro New England in 1789; and Port Chester, last outpost ofthe Empire State, surveying from its heights Greenwich and theConnecticut shore. All these places are very gay in summer, andmanv beautiful villas may he seen on ?11 sid°s.
