    3. From The Cork Examiner, 16 September 1878 - NOTES ON GLENGARIFF AND KILLARNEY.--A London publisher (R. J. Bush, Charing Cross) has issued a volume designed to act as a guide to these interesting localities, and to enlarge especially on the beauty and health-giving qualities of Glengariff. To people in the South of Ireland it is scarce necessary to enlarge on the beauty of the Lakes, or of that bay which assuredly may be reckoned amongst the very choicest spots that could be selected as examples of the loveliness of earth. Glengariff has rivals but scarcely a superior. What, however, is not perhaps so generally known is that Glengariff is a perfect sanatorium, and a most valuable as well as interesting resort for invalids. The volume before us produces a most extraordinary accumulation of high medical testimony to this effect. Not the least attractive feature of this delightful spot is that of late years its hotel accommodation has been wonderfully improved, and that in this respect it now stands not inferior to Switzerland and the Highlands. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dennis Ahern | Ireland Newspaper Abstracts Acton, Massachusetts | http://www.IrelandOldNews.com - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
