Saturday Evening Gazette/June 7, 1856/Nahant

Nahant.—After the present storm has abated, pleasant weather may with certainty be predicted, and overcoats and furs packed away for three months at least. We have a guarantee for this, in the fact that Mr. Stevens having consulted the almanac has determined to open the Nahant House on Thursday next, when the summer season will be fairly inaugurated. The Nelly Baker on that day will resume her trips, and the peninsula will again denote the advent of that throng, who annually seek its health-giving breezes, and the comfort and pleasure to be found under the roof of the splendid establishment which is there located. Since the close of last season, the house has been materially enlarged, and every convenience which a city hotel possesses will here be found. There is not, in fact, a home comfort which one is deprived of, and a glance at the list of those who have secured rooms, assures us, that there will be no lack of the best and most agreeable society. We hear of several attractions which cannot fail to invite both the permanent and transient visitors to this splendid sea side resort, and we know that nothing will be wanting on the part of the popular lessees to sustain the enviable reputation they enjoy.
