God's Country: Eagle Bay-Fourth Lake

“God’s Country” was the first name by which I knew the Adirondack Mountains. When I came Eagle Bay in 1937 as John Petersen’s wife, I had carried with me since 1917 a mental picture of its beauty. That was when I had first met John, and at that time his description of the country he lived in and loved fitted the name by which he called it. Twenty years later when he brought me to Eagle Bay from Texas, he said we would live in God’s Country. Two days after arriving in Eagle Bay I walked down to the beach. Looking over the blue waters of Fourth Lake to the triple rim of the mountains surrounding it with Dollar and Cedar Island lying in the middle of the lake, and the lush evergreens and majestic trees covering the mountains and the islands, it was not difficult for me to see God’s handiwork in it at all. Truly I had come to see God’s Country. Clara V. O’Brien
