Argos RelfetorSnipets Maxinkuckee
1886 Jul 29 Jealous? Not a Bit
Maxinuckee Lake will do very will as a pleasure resort for person with untold supply of
governrment bonds, railraod stock, and an unlimited bank account, and who care more
for spending money than genuine pleasure.
Boats are rented at 25 cents an hour, and as much more as they can g et; the price being
regulated by the gullibillity of the renter. Board ranges from two to fifteen dollaras a week
for a single person. Trully Maxinkuckee is a rival, in prices at least, to Saratogea. The lake is
pretty, but what more can be said of it? FIshing is poor, hinting id poorer, and at not time
is it safe to venture on its treacherous waters, on account ofg the frequency of storms and
the suddenness with which they arise,
Manitou Lake...while every year at Maxinkuckeee some one meets with a watery grave... -

capacity is exceeded will ind accomodations for his patients at
Rector's Hotel
Dr. Kincaid is quite sanguine of being able to establish a sanitarium
on a large scale there.
He regards the assembly grounds as ideal for his plans, and if the
business develp[es as he anticipates he will erect a permanent
building there - Argos Reflector
