Excerpt from The St. Mary's Muse, Vol. 17: October, 1912 Miss Thomas felt so refreshed from her walk up the mountain that she was anxious to start down again, and Margaret Erwin, as tired as she was, felt it her duty to see Miss Thomas safely down. The rest of us, however, enjoyed riding down in a funicular, and found it much easier to appreciate the scenery than when walking up!
