Excerpt from Three Days on the White Mountains: Being the Perilous Adventure of Dr. B. L. Ball on Mount Washington, During October 25, 26, and 27, 1855 IT was not from choice that I made my trip to the White Mountains in the fall of the year, instead of in the summer. A combination of circumstances seemed so to determine it. Still, early autumn, when the first touches of frost are upon the foliage, will be admitted by all to be an interesting season to visit this, one of the most attractive places of natural beauty in our country.
