From a 1900 Travel Guide:
Lake Memphremagog ('beautiful water'; 470 ft.), a lovely sheet of water, 30 M. long and 2-4 M. wide, lies one-fifth in Vermont and four-fifths in Canada. It is enclosed by rocky shores and wooded hills, and ils waters abound in lake-trout (salmo confinis), pickerel, perch, and bass. A small steamer plies daily between Newport (see above) and Magog, at the N. end of the lake (there and back about 6-7 hrs.). Passing Indian Point and the Iwin Sitten, we cross the Canadian line near Province Itland. On the W. (left) shore we stop at the Owl's Head Hotel ($ 2-3), at the foot of the prominent Owl's Head (3270 ft.), which is ascended hence in 1 1/2-2 1/2 hrs. The "View includes, on a clear day, Montreal and the Green, White, and Adirondack Mts. Farther on, the ateamer passes Long Island and calls at some small landings. On the E. shore are the country-houses of several wealthy Montrealers, and on the W. rises lit. Elephantus (Revere Ho.). Georgeville (Camperdown Hotel), on the E. bank, 20 M. from Newport, is a quiet and inexpensive watering-place. — Magog (Park Home), at the N. end of the lake, at its outlet through the Magog River, atl'ords good fishing quarters and is a station on the C. P. Railway from Montre-il to St. John, N.B. (see E. 10). Mt. Orford (4500 ft.), 6 M. to the W., aflbrds a good view of the Canadian pine-forests to the N. and W. Beyond Newport our line runs towards the N.W., following the valley of the Misswquoi and entering Canada (Quebec) near Mansonville. Beyond.
