Text Appearing Before Image:
f travel madefrequent houses of entertainment a necessity. Themore expeditious canal, followed swiftly by the hur-rying railroads, blighted forever the prospects of thetavern, and its doom was fixed. Scattered all overour county today may be seen these sleepy old monu-ments of a by-gone age, some hastening to decay,weather-beaten, neglected, solitary—others transform-ed into pleasant, rural homes, not one of them a tav-ern as of old. Were the proud stage-coach of three-quarters of a century ago to come rattling over theGfenesee turnpike to the Auburn of today, the passen-gers would find no vestige of the hospitable inns theywere wont to see, unless possibly some might recog-nize the old Parmelee Tavern in the home-like Nation-al Hotel. In closing, I would extend my thanks to the oldresidents who have so patiently submitted to my in-quisition, and have racked their memories foi factsand incidents which have given to my narrative what-ever interest mav be claimed for it. 5.--i ih S 03
