 STAMFORD, CONN. 



to the right is the farm of Arthur I'. 

 Hatch of Stamford. This was a part of 

 the Davenport estate. 



A long hill confronts the traveler, 

 and as one mounts, the view becomes 

 wider, and when the top is reached, to 

 the left can be seen the mountainous 

 hills of New York state, and if the day 

 be clear, the towns of Greenwich on the 

 west, the Norwalks on the east, and 

 Stamford on the south are spread be- 

 fore one like a panarama. 



This is Davenport's Ridge, and here 

 at the very top we find the homestead 

 of many generations of Davenports, 

 still in good preservation. Erected i.i 

 1775, this attractive old house is one of 

 the few remaining Revolutionary land 

 marks. 



A few yards from the homestead, is 

 the larger residence of B. Butler Dav- 

 enport. The house was built by Mr. 

 Davenport's grandfather the late Rev. 

 Amzi B. Davenport. Situated on the 

 extreme height of Davenport Ridge, 

 the view is all that an}- one can desire. 

 Mr. Davenport spends his summers
