TEXTThis popular and widely known hotel is built in modern cottage style and is a cool and pleasing-looking edifice. It passed into the hands of the present proprietor, Mr. William R. Courter, in November, 1881, who has since made new and ample preparations to entertain guests in the most pleasing style. Mr. Courter employs a staff of eight assistants, the chef-de-cuisine being notably the best in the place. The bar is well stocked with the best of liquors, which the courteous bartender, Mr. Oscar Johnson, dispenses to his patrons with a liberal hand. An elegantly fitted-up billiard and pool-room is attached to the establishment and the parlors are equipped in a manner leaving nothing to be desired. The upper floors are divided into bed-rooms, furnished in the handsomest manner. The house has an extensive patronage from New York and other large cities, especially during the summer, many prominent business men from the city, with their families, making it their sojourning place during the heated term. Mr. Courter, the genial proprietor of this large and fashionable hotel, is a native of New Jersey. He is a self-made man, having worked himself up from the smallest beginnings to his present enviable position. His courtesy and affability have gained him hosts of friends, as he is considered one of the most popular men in the town of Montclair. His hotel bears the desirable reputation of being the finest and bestappointed house in a large circuit, the accommodations for man and beast being unrivaled.
