Excerpt from Visitors' Hand Book of Old Point Comfort, Va;, And Vicinity: Including Fortress Monroe, Town of Hampton, National Home for D. V. Soldiers, National Cemetery, and the Hampton Normal Agricultural Institute
Persons seeking rest and recreation at a place unfamiliar to them, are always anxious to see and enjoy the scenes and points of interest peculiar to that place. As a means to this end, this little book is designed by the compiler.
In the vicinity of Old Point Comfort are many places, equally as interesting for the part being played here at the present day, as for its historic past. Its past associations and experiences were warlike and full bf excitement and anxiety to the Nation; its present associations are peaceful and full of interest to the Nation. As in the past it was a pivotal point for the temporal salvation of the country; so to-day it is a pivotal point for the mental and moral salvation of the country. In the past it was a port from which many brave men sailed to meet death calmly on the battle-field; to-day it is a haven of rest to those who have survived the conflict, where they may spend their last days peacefully and quietly, in the midst of pleasant surroundings.
