Headnote

Brandon, Vt., Rutland co. Watered by Otter Creek, Mill River, and Spring Pond, on which streams are good mill sites. Some of the land is level, with rather a light soil, but that on Otter Creek is excellent. Bog iron ore is found here; also, abundance of marble. There are two curious limestone caverns in this town. 60 miles N. W. from Windsor, and 40 S. W. from Montpelier. The Rutland Railroad passes through it.
