All aboard for The Dale, Champlain and Cheemaun R. R.!" The Vision was quieted, the travelers sprang in, the whip cracked, the wheels rattled, the horses pranced, and away they spun down the leafy streets down, down, to the long level stretch of Champlain's Road that ran straight out into the country.
