 HE city of Ithaca, tlie county seat of Tompkins County, N. Y., is delightfully situated at the head of 
 
 Cayuga Lake, seventy miles southeast of Rochester. The site of Ithaca attracted the white pioneers 
 
 in this vicinity, and it was first settled in 1789, but did not become definitely known by its present name 
 
 until 1806. The Catawba Indian village of " Coreorgonel," destroyed by an army under General 
 
 Sullivan in 1779, had its location nearby at Buttermilk Falls. 
 
 In 1888, Ithaca was chartered as a city. The population has steadily increased since until it now contains 
 about 16,000 inhabitants, not including a student population of about 3,000 more. 
 
 Ithaca is the center of a productive agricultural region, is the headquarters of an extensive coal trade, and 
 has many flourishing manufactories, but is principally known to the world as the seat of the famous Cornell 
 University, one of the great educational institutions of the country. The buildings of this splendid University 
 occupy a commanding location, four hundred feet high, overlooking Lake Cayuga and the city. Ithaca is also 
 justly proud of several famous high-grade preparatory schools and a fine conservatory of music. 
 
 The wonderfully picturesque scenery in the neighborhood of the city has brought a rapidly-growing fame to 
 Ithaca as a summer resort. To this end also, a well-ordered park system, a fine local trolley service and ample 
 railroad facilities contribute notably. 
 
 Being a college city, Ithaca is especially well-served in its public schools, and the many substantial blocks, 
 handsome private residences, and beautiful and well-supported churches are concrete evidences of the enlightened 
 public spirit of its citizenship, and of the high moral standing of the community.
