I. The Theophilus Eaton House. There are two sources from which we obtain all that we know of this house. The first is an old woodcut published in 1838 by Lambert in his History of The Colony of New Haven, with the statements which Stiles and Lambert, in their writings, have made about the building. The second source — the only one from which there is no appeal — is the inventory of the Governor's estate, "taken, and apprized by Mathew Gilbert, Jo: Wakeman and Rich- ard Miles in the twelveth mo...neth: 1657." We give, in Figure 47, a fac -simile of Lambert's "Southwest view of Governor Eaton's House." In describing the building he says' : . . . . " Gov. Eaton built his house on the spot which is now the north corner of Elm and Orange streets. It was built in ' Edward R. Lambert, History of The Colony of New Haven, p. 52.
