Dr. Gordon, the English historian, said : " There is not the like in Europe. " Dr. Morse, the geographer, eulogized him. His friend Thomas Jefferson said : " Surpassing in in- genuity, contrivance, skill, accuracy and utility, any thing of the kind, ever before constructed. * * * Hq ji^g i-jq|-^ i^_ deed, made a world ; but he has ...by imitation, approached nearer his Maker, than any man who has lived, from the Cre- ation, to this day. " For this wonderful instrument, the Orrery, two univer- sities vied with each other to obtain it; the University of Pennsylvania, and Princeton College ; while the former, Dr. Smith, desired to have it, yet. Dr. Witherspoon, of the latter institution, secured it by the payment of ^300. These facts lend interest to the spot, made memorable by the works, and inventive faculty of David Rittenhouse at Norriton ; with the near prospect of the old church, being always in sight from his country home, and the attractive for- 38 est-covered Mehacton Hill (usually pronounced Methatchen), lying in the near south-west.
