Excerpt from What I Saw at Cassadaga Lake: A Review of the Seybert Commissioners' Report The assembly ground is situated in a beautiful grove or wood land, and contains forty acres. It is artistically laid out in streets, 9. Number of which are thickly bordered with tasteful cottages. It has a capacious auditorium which will comfortably seat. Eight hundred persons; and during the summer months, when the association is in session, the ground is filled with a concourse of well-dressed, intelligent people, who go there for pleasure, as well as to hear lectures on spiritual philosophy, and witness the strange sights of the many s???ances held daily, either in public or in the private rooms of professed mediums. A very pretty little steamer makes trips around the lakes every few hours, mostly accommodating pleasure-seekers who prefer water to communication with the spirits. A fine hotel has just been completed on the ground, while several others are located on the shore of the lake near by. On my visit, I was surprised at the class of visitors I met there, - jfiges of our courts, doctors, lawyers, and learned professors, as well as business men in every condition in life. A fine brass band enlivened the scene with music, while innocent mirth and amusements were judiciously mingled with lectures and other intellectual enjoyments; and yet all was as quiet and orderly as if a perpetual Sabbath reigned within the solemn woods. A large number of intelligent ladies were there, and the voices of happy little children were heard among the trees, making the ancient forest echo with the music of their gladness. It is a charming place, one well calculated to entice visitations from the spirit world, if such a world exists.
