The Hudson, from the wilderness to the sea / by Benson J. Lossing;Virtue & Yorston, 1866.
In the lake directly in front of Scarron village is an elliptical island, containing about one hundred acres. It was purchased a few years ago bby Colonel A. L. Ireland, a wealthy gentleman of New York, who went there in search of health, and who spent large sums of money in subduing the savage features of the island, erecting a pleasant summer mansion upon it, and in changing the rough and forbidding aspect of the whole domain into one of beauty and attractiveness. Taste and labour had wrought wonderful changes there, and its appearance justified the title it bore of Isol Bella - the Indian Cay-wa-noot. The mansion was cruciform, and delightfully situated. In front of it were tastefully ornamented grounds, with vistas through the forest of treees, that afforded glimpses of charming lake, landscape, and distant mountain scenery. Within were evidences of elegant refinement - a valuable library, statuary, bronzes, and some rare paintings. Among other sketches was a picture of Hale Hall, in Lancashire, England - the ancestral dwelling of Colonel Ireland.
