In spite of the fact that this dwelling was still in an admirable state of preservation, it was taken down in 1812 by my grandfather, who re- placed it by a house of the then fashionable Grecian temple style of architecture. The old house, as described to me, was large and heavily timbered, with its sides covered with over- lapping cedar shingles. In front the hipped roof began to rise from a little above the ceiling of the first story, but sloped so little that the house was practically two st...ories high on that side. At the rear the roof slowly receded from the ridge-pole to the long stoep which ran from north to south across the back of the low-ceiled, many-windowed, wide and comfortable old manse. On the first floor four large rooms were grouped round the central chimney, against which, and directly op- posite to the outer door, was a square hall from which a flight of stairs broken by a platform ran to the second story. In accordance with the general usage of the time, this outer door was divided into upper and lower halves.
