| "In the most elevated portion of the center of the plateau is situated a thriving hamlet of 100 or more people; a colony, strictly speaking, above the clouds, and appropriately called Highlands. It was founded in 1874 by Mr. Kelsey and Mr. Hutchinson, men of the same enterprising and enthusiastic mould that all founders of towns in primitive countries are cast in." (1883, Ziegler pp. 326-327) | |
