BENHAM'S NEW HAVEN CITY DIRECTORY.
did considerable damage, and greatly altered the appearance of the Rock. More than two hundred years ago, these narrow fissures were the only home of two men, whose names were once memorable in England,-General Ed- ward Whalley, and General William Goffe, both of whose signatures are affixed to the warrant for the execution of King Charles I. These gentle- men had fled at the Restoration, and made their appearance at New Haven in the Spring of 1661. To protect their friends here from the suspicion of harboring rebels, they betook themselves to this wild retreat, where they were supplied with food by Richard Sperry, the nearest inhabitant to the rock. Tradition says, that they were frightened from the place by the ap- pearance in the night of a panther or catamount.
A pleasant half hour's ramble in a northeasterly direction, leads to a ro- mantic spot, called
Wintergreen Falls.
It is one of the most agreeable places for the visit of pleasure parties, that can be found in the vicinity of New Haven. Those who prefer a carriage to the horse cars can approach nearer the Judge's Cave, by following the road at the foot of the Rock, north to the first dwelling on the right hand side, opposite which is the direct ascent to the Cave. The shortest way both to Judge's Cave, or Wintergreen Falls, is through Goffe and Crescent streets. To visit the latter place, those not familiar with its situation will find it necessary to make inquiries at some of the dwellings near the foot of the Rock.
The Village of Whitneyville
Is a pleasant place for strangers to visit. Its distance is little more than two miles from the city, and can be reached by two or three different roads,-either by the Hamden road, through Broadway, or by Prospect street, through the woods and past the reservoir, or directly by the Hartford turnpike. The pleasantest of these drives, especially in a warm day, is that through the woods, both from its shadiness, and from the fine views both of East and West Rock, to be seen at intervals on the road. The village itself was built up by Eli Whitney, Esq., the distinguished inventor of the cotton gin. In the year 1798, Mr. Whitney, having obtained a contract from the United States for the manufacture of ten thousand stand of arms, purchased the site of the place, and erected his factory, together with a number of tenements for workmen. Mr. Whitney died in 1825. The factory, greatly enlarged, is now owned by his son, who continues the man- ufacture of fire arms.
New Haven Water Company.
Mill river, on which the factory is situated, furnishes New Haven with its water. A new and very substantial dam was built in 1861. The dwellings on the sides of the stream above were removed, and the interval between the high lands on each side the river, flooded. The reservoir for the sup- ply of the city, is situated on the elevated land between Prospect street and the old Hartford Turnpike, about a mile from the dam. The pump by which the water is forced into the reservoir has, until within the last year, been driven by the surplus water of Mill river. To provide against the contin- gency of drouth and avoid the very large consumption of water occasioned by pumping with water power, steam machinery for that purpose has been
72
BENHAM'S NEW HAVEN CITY DIRECTORY.
introduced on a large scale, the purpose being to use it whenever the waste water is not amply sufficient to drive the pumping machinery. With this economy of supply, it is believed that the Company will be able to meet all the wants of consumers, and that no such contingency will again arise as that happening in the unexampled drouth of 1870. The Company have made a large increase the last year in the extension of their mains and dis- tribution pipes, and have virtually occupied all the more thickly settled por- tions of the city. Their water is of excellent quality, and the supply has always been ample, except in a few instances of extreme drouth.
East Rock.
This beautiful eminence is reached by a short ride over Neck Bridge-, and by an ascent not difficult for carriages. The city, the harbor, the ship- ping, Long Island Sound, and in the distance Long Island itself, unite to form a singularly beautiful panorama. A house of entertainment can be found on the brow of the rock, with a bowling alley for those who like the amusement. Parties on foot will find the return to the city over the rock, by the way of Whitneyville, to be a pleasant walk. Parties on horseback, or even in carriages, (though the road is not to be commended for vehicles), will find a beautiful view of the face of the Rock, by turning to the left after reaching its foot, and following up the stream either to Potter's Bridge, or to Whitneyville. A pleasant ride entirely round the rock is had by the Whitneyville road to the covered bridge above the dam, and by taking the first road to the right after crossing the stream, and then into the city. Those who are fond of a drive by the water, will find a pleasant one over Neck Bridge to Lewis' Bridge, thence down the Quinnipiack to Fair Haven, and across the railroad to the old ferry point.
Fair Haven.
The village of Fair Haven is well worth a visit, by all who are curious to know how the remotest settlements of the far West are supplied with that standing American luxury,-" Fair Haven Oysters." It can be reached in a brief time, either by the Horse Railroad, or by private carriages. A short walk from the terminus of the railroad, will lead the stranger to the emi- nence on the East, which overlooks nearly all of the Quinnipiack Valley. The elegant and commodious residences of Chas. Ives, Esq., and Hon. James F. Babcock, occupy the two conspicuous sites on either side of the road. To parties in carriages, desirous of finding a charming rural drive, the road running eastward from these mansions, for two or three miles, then south- ward to East Haven green, can be commended.
