BATHING BEACHES<br />

90 - H&G June 30:2/4 - In a letter to the editor, "A Citizen" says:<br />

"I wish to inquire of you if the Corporation have any laws against public<br />

bathing. The bank of the lake has always been a place of resort for our<br />

citizens and their friends while visiting this city to view one of those<br />

unsurpassed beauties, 'the setting sun.' But for several times have I,<br />

with my female friends, been denied this pleasure, and obliged to surrender<br />

up one of the most delightful promenades on account of such indecencies.<br />

If any of our Common Council will take the trouble to walk down at sunset<br />

to the bank of the lake, they will see a want of decency to no small<br />

extent. " (2)<br />
