Here the outlook, answering the more, genial southern aspect, though of as grand proportions, is more verdant. The hills are more tree-clad and the valleys are more of a refuge from climatic inclemencies, over to where Mt. Clark raises its head into the ethereal dome and the everlasting hills proclaim, in no figurative sense, the glory and might of a creative God!
