It was executed with all the solidity, taste, and ornament of the best buildings of that period in England, and was for a long period deemed the finest private residence east of Boston. In those mutations of fortune so common in this country, the building came, after the death of its first occupant, into other hands, and being too large for any but a very rich man to keep up, it was appropriated to its present purpose. But in addition to the spaciousness of the bedrooms, so different from the c...ribbed and confined cabins of most of the large hotels, the table is as well supplied as in any town in Europe, with an attention on the part of the master of the house, an absence of hurry and bustle among the servants, and a leisure and repose among the guests, who sit half an hour at breakfast, and sometimes an hour at dinner that is quite remark able, and made us feel more at home than in any hotel in which we had ever lived since we landed in the country. The master of the house, Mr. Coburn, is a native of Lowell, in Massachusetts, and unites the modesty and unobtrusiveness, so uncommon in the hotel-keepers of this country, with the manners of a gentleman ; and with both, the careful attention to every wish or want of his guests, which is so rare among the majors, colonels, and generals, of the inn keeper class of America.
