Book Synopsis A Guide to Newport by : Gabriel Weis
Download or read book A Guide to Newport written by Gabriel Weis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-29 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to Newport: Rhode Island They built a cabin where Farewell Street now runs. This structure was destroyed by fire two years later; but other houses had already been erected by colonists who joined the Eastons, the town boundaries laid out, and Newport was firmly established. One of the new-comers was Benedict Arnold (no ancestor of Arnold the traitor). He became Governor of the colony, owned considerable land, including the hill where the Old Stone Mill stands, and is buried on this property, on the grounds of the Governor Van Zandt mansion on Pelham Street. Other prominent colonists were William Coddington and William Brenton, whose names are perpetuated by Codding ton's Cove and Brenton's Point. Coddington was a large land-owner, and as Governor was ambitious to set himself up as a little king of the island; but his neighbors so strongly objected that he was compelled to leave. Brenton also became Governor. He owned a large estate which he called Hammersmith Farm, after his native town in England. It is said that the first daisies in America were those brought from the old country by Brenton and planted on his farm. His residence, called The Chimneys, was the first of the great mansions of which Newport has so many. This house, in fact the entire town of Newport, was a refuge for the white settlers from the Indians who ravaged the mainland. That part of the Narragansett tribe which remained on the island was always friendly and helpful to the whites.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text.

The Old Stone Tower--Its Situation, Appearance, And Present Condition--Controversies Respecting It --Arnold's Will -- The Skeleton In ArmorOpinions Of Rafn--Smith And Cooper--Original Lines On The Ruin. Minute classification is very proper, and indeed extremely necessary in all matters connected with scientific investigation. It is, however, by no means indispensable in a book such as this, which only professes to be a series of walks and talks. And perhaps the most natural division one could adopt, in local loiterings, would be to jot down, without reference to strict order, particulars of, and speculations upon such matters and things as we may perchance meet with just when the impressions made by them are fresh and vivid. If, as Campbell tells us, "distance lends enchantment to the view," it also too frequently robs it of its distinctness, and in the hazy remoteness of the object veils the sharp lines which give to it half its character. The curiosities of a city or town are generally the first objects of attraction to visitors. It cannot, therefore, be wondered at, that the singular structure which we are about to describe, should be one of the earliest resorts of the stranger in Newport. It is one of the "Lions" of the place, and as such has always, within the memory of man, claimed consideration and baffled curiosity. Not like some gray old cathedral, whose "Towers are crumbling one by one; Whose turrets to the dust have gone f-- Not like some abbey like that of Melrose or Tintern, where "The moon--the regal moon intensely bright, Shines through the roseate window of the west; Each shaft an artificial stalactite Of pendent stone;"-- Nor, like some battered castle, in whose courtyards rank weeds grow unchecked; and in...
