Excerpt from Clyde Corners The Clydes of Clyde Corners lived on Garland Street, the main road leading to the Palisades. The house was at a little distance back from the road, and one entered the place, which was sur rounded by a high fence of wrought iron, through great iron gates with stone posts. These gates always stood open, but they gave the house an air Of dignified seclusion which was heightened by the groups of spruce and cedar trees which shaded the lawn.
