Matthew Caffyn

Matthew Caffyn (christened 26 October 1628 – buried June 1714) was a British General Baptist preacher and writer.

Early life

He was born at Horsham, Sussex, the seventh son of Thomas Caffin, by Elizabeth his wife (in Mark Antony Lower's 'Worthies of Sussex' it is incorrectly said that his father was German). According to family tradition, Elizabeth was a direct descendant of a martyr of the Marian Persecutions, possibly John Forman, who was burnt at East Grinstead in 1556. Matthew's father Thomas Caffin was employed by the Onslow family, who owned Drungewick Manor close to the border of Sussex and Surrey. When Matthew was around 7 years old, Richard Onslow adopted him as a companion for his own son Richard. The two boys were educated at a grammar school in Kent and in 1643 both were sent to All Souls College, Oxford to study for the Church of England ministry. However he soon faced difficulties at All Souls College for questioning infant baptism and the Trinity and then advocating Baptist tenets. The university attempted to induce Caffyn to suppress his own views, but failed and he was then expelled in 1645. Now 17, Caffyn returned to Horsham and was installed at Pond Farm in Southwater by his adoptive father. He quickly joined a General Baptist church there, and was appointed assistant to the local General Baptist minister, Samuel Lover. Caffyn's apparent campaigning vigour brought about a significant increase in local adherents, and by 1648 he had taken over the ministry from Lover.

Preacher and suspected heretic


Matthew Caffyn

Preacher and suspected heretic

Caffyn preached assiduously in Sussex villages, and was five times imprisoned for unauthorised preaching. In 1655 two quakers from the north, Thomas Lawson and John Slee, were on a mission in Sussex. Lawson had been a beneficed clergyman in Lancashire, known as a botanist. But in his encounter with Caffyn he descended to abuse. Caffyn had expressed his views in a quakers' meeting at Crawley, and the discussion had been continued on 5 Sep at Caffyn's house near Southwater, just south of Horsham. A pamphlet war resulted. One Baptist participant, Joseph Wright, was removed by an incarceration in Maidstone gaol; and when he came out, Caffyn's heresies seemed to him to require attention rather than those of the quakers. This later led to serious trouble for Caffyn.

Caffyn was several times prosecuted and fined under the Conventicle Act. By 1677 there was a separation, amicably managed, in a Baptist church at Spilshill, in the parish of Staplehurst, Kent, on account of a difference of opinion regarding the Trinity; a part of the flock had embraced the teaching of Caffyn. There was room for latitude in the treatment of this article among the Arminian baptists, for in their 'Brief Confession' of March 1660 neither the Trinity nor the Godhead of Christ is explicitly stated. Caffyn did not vent his views in print, but in his preaching he avoided 'unrevealed sublimities,' and in conversation he owned his disagreement with material points in the Athanasian creed. His views were at least susceptible of an Arian interpretation. Accordingly, Joseph Wright denounced him to the general baptist assembly of 1691 as denying both the divinity and the humanity of Christ, and moved for his excommunication. What Joshua Toulmin calls Caffyn's 'truly protestant and ingenious defence' satisfied the assembly. Wright returned to the charge in 1693, but again the assembly refused to censure Caffyn. Wright withdrew and protested.


Matthew Caffyn

The matter was agitated outside the assembly, and at length the Buckinghamshire and Northamptonshire churches demanded and re-demanded (1699) a further trial, and the assembly agreed to go into the case at Whitsuntide of 1700. They fulfilled this promise by appointing a committee of eight, including four of the complainants, to confer with Caffyn and draw up a healing resolution. The committee were unanimous in offering a declaration

Just before the next assembly, Christopher Cooper of Ashford published a reply to 'The Moderate Trinitarian,' &c., 1699, by Daniel Allen, whose work seems to have inspired the mediating policy of the assembly's committee. Cooper charges Caffyn with unsoundness respecting Adam's fall, Christ's satisfaction, and the soul's immortality; he quotes a description of Caffyn's opinions as 'nothing but a fardel of Mahometanism, Arianism, Socinianism, and Quakerism.' At the same time he admits that Caffyn took pains to convert Socinians. He deplores the spread of Caffyn's errors 'in Kent, Sussex, and London, but especially in West Kent.' When the assembly met (1701) the Northamptonshire churches complained that Caffyn had not been properly tried. The assembly, after debate, affirmed by a large majority that Caffyn's declaration, with his signature to 'the aforesaid expedient,' was sufficient and satisfactory.

The minority seceded, and formed a new connexion under the name of the 'general association,' branding the majority as 'Caffinites.' But the two parties came together again in 1704; Wright died in 1703. This is the first deliberate and formal endorsement of latitudinarian opinions in the article of the Trinity by the collective authority of any tolerated section of English dissent.

Later life and legacy

Of Caffyn's career subsequently to 1701 there is no account. He had left Southwater for Broadbridge Heath, some two miles north of Horsham, in an outlying part of the parish of Sullington. Caffyn lived to a patriarchal age, dying in June 1714. He was buried in the churchyard at Itchingfield on 10 June. He was succeeded in the ministry by his eldest son, Matthew.


Matthew Caffyn

For the future of the General Baptists, Antitrinitarianism, of one type or another, took possession of their congregations in the south of England. The New Connexion of General Baptists was formed, chiefly in the Midlands, by Dan Taylor in 1770; the older body arrived at Socinianism (in its modified English form) and became a small remnant. Caffyn's own church at Horsham ceased to be Baptist, and was known as 'Free Christian' from 1879.

Works

Against Caffyn's view Lawson published 'An Untaught Teacher witnessed against, &c.,' 1655. Caffyn retorted in 'The Deceived, and deceiving Quakers discovered, &c.,' 1656, with which was printed a pamphlet by William Jeffery, Baptist minister of Sevenoaks. Caffyn's position is that of a literal believer in external revelation, and he defends such points as the Second coming of Christ and the bodily resurrection against the 'damnable heresies' of the quakers. Lawson made no reply, but the matter was taken up by James Nayler in 'The Light of Christ, &c.,' 1656, (not included in his collected works), and incidentally by George Fox in his 'Great Mistery, &c.,' 1659.

Caffyn reiterated his charges against quaker theology in an appendix to his 'Faith in God's Promises the Saint's best weapon,' 1661, which was briefly answered by Humphrey Wollrich in 'One Warning more to the Baptists,' &c., 1661, and by George Whitehead in an appendix to 'The Pernicious Way, &c.,' 1662. A neighbouring Baptist minister, Joseph Wright of Maidstone, took part in this dispute with the quakers, publishing 'A Testimony for the Son of Man,' &c., 1661. The first to accuse Caffyn (though not by name) of error respecting the person of Christ seems to have been Thomas Monck, in 'A Cure for the cankering Error of the New Eutychians,' 1673.


Matthew Caffyn

In addition, Caffyn published: 1. ‘Envy's Bitterness corrected,’ 1674 (?). 2. ‘A raging Wave foaming out its own shame,’ 1675. 3. ‘The Great Error and Mistake of the Quakers.’ 4. ‘The Baptist's Lamentation.’

Tricarpelema pumilum

Tricarpelema pumilum is a monocotyledonous herbaceous plant in the family Commelinaceae. It is known from only six collections on the island of Borneo. The species looks like a smaller version of the closely related Tricarpelema philippense, but the two can be differentiated based on the size and shape of the capsule, as well as the number of seeds per locule.

Distribution and habitat

Tricarpelema pumilum has only been collected 6 times, all of which were made on the island of Borneo in the Malay Archipelago. One collection was made in the Temburong district of Brunei, one was made in the Kapit Division in eastern Malaysia's state of Sarawak, while the remaining 4 have their origins in Kalimantan in Indonesia.

Tricentis Tosca

Tricentis Tosca is a software testing tool that is used to automate end-to-end testing for software applications. It is developed by Tricentis.

Tricentis Tosca combines multiple aspects of software testing (test case design, test automation, test data design and generation, and analytics) to test GUIs and APIs from a business perspective.Model-based testing and Risk-based testing.

Model-based testing

Instead of using scripting for test automation, Tricentis Tosca applies a model-based testing approach and creates a model of the application under test. Technical details about the application under test, test case logic, and test data are saved separately and joined together at test execution time. When an element in the application under test changes, the technical details are updated once in the central model. Since the test cases inherit from this model, the various test cases that test the updated element do not need to be modified manually to reflect the change.

Risk-based testing

Based on a risk assessment of the application under test’s requirements, Tricentis Tosca uses risk-based test design to suggest the most effective test cases and identify the risk contribution of each test cases. It also uses a variety of methodologies (such as equivalence partitioning, boundary testing, and combinatorial methods such as linear expansion) to try to minimize the number of test cases while increasing risk coverage. After the tests are executed, the tool aggregates risk coverage from business, technical, and compliance perspectives.

Additional technologies

Tricentis Tosca features technologies for GUI testing, API testing, Mobile testing, Service virtualization, Test data design and generation, Business intelligence and data warehouse testing, and Exploratory testing.SAP S/4HANA, SAP Fiori 2.0, SuccessFactors, SAP CRM, Concur Technologies, SAP Ariba, and SAP Business Information Warehouse.

Simeon Selby Pennewill (July 23, 1867 – September 10, 1935) was an American farmer and politician from Dover, in Kent County, Delaware. He was a member of the Republican Party, who served in the Delaware General Assembly and as Governor of Delaware.

Early life and family

Pennewill was born near Greenwood, Delaware, son of Simeon and Ann Curry Pennewill. The elder Simeon was one of the larger peach growers and owned the land that later became the town of Greenwood. He was also active in the Republican Party and served in the Governor's Guard during the Civil War. Simeon, the younger, was educated at Wilmington Conference Academy, now Wesley College in Dover. He married, later in life, after he served as governor, first in 1920, Lydia Wright Elder, and second in 1927, Elizabeth Halsey. There were no children by either marriage. They lived at 228 North State Street in Dover and he was a member of the Methodist Church.

Professional and political career

Pennewill inherited and continued to operate his family's peach orchards in Greenwood and Bridgeville. Pennewill was elected to two terms in the Delaware State Senate and served from the 1899/1900 session through the 1905/06 session.

Governor of Delaware

He then was elected Governor of Delaware by defeating Rowland G. Paynter, the Democratic Party candidate and served one term from January 19, 1909 until January 21, 1913. Like his predecessor, Pennewill began his career as an Addicks Republican, but was dedicated to reuniting the party.

The Delaware General Assembly at this time approved the sale of the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal to the Federal government, and passed the Boulevard Corporation Act, which provided the legal authority for T. Coleman du Pont to begin to build his privately funded highway the length of the state.


Simeon S. Pennewill

Delaware's antiquated whipping post again received embarrassing national attention. Out of state pressure forced Pennewill to reduce the number of lashings given in one sentence, but the pressure seemed to only intensify local opinion in favor of the use of the whipping post. He also made a controversial appointment to his elder brother, James Pennewill, the position of Chief Justice of Delaware. His brother served until his death 26 years later in 1935. It was during Pennewill's term that the DuPont Company lost its antitrust suit and was forced to divest itself of what became the Hercules Powder and Atlas Powder Companies.

On January 15, 1934, a fire caused considerable damage to the theatre. The fire is believed to have started from a burning cigarette thrust against the motion picture screen. The fires started at the lower right corner of the picture screen and spread rapidly to the scenery. The people at the theatre were unaware that there was a fire. The asbestos curtain was dropped hurriedly and kept the flames back stage. Firemen battled the flames for more than an hour. The Betsy Ross scenery, two complete scenery sets and 56 sets of line were destroyed. Sound equipment and screens were destroyed at a cost of estimated at $5,000. Insurance covered the cost of the damages.

On January 17, 1934, the Murphy Theatre re-opened. New 'talkies' equipment and a new and larger picture screen were installed.

The Murphy Theatre in 1950

Notably, local filmmaker Kroger Babb's controversial 1945 exploitation film Mom and Dad was shown several times in the Murphy Theatre, featuring live appearances by "hygiene commentator" Elliott Forbes, played by various Wilmington residents. Mom and Dad was added to the National Film Registry in 2005, due to its distinction as "[t]he most successful sex-hygiene exploitation film of all time, a low budget but relentlessly promoted, socially significant film, which finished as the third highest grossing film during the 1940s."

Today

Today the Murphy Theatre is a non-profit theatre and serves as a community center. The theatre has 682 seats. On September 18, 1999, the Murphy Theatre hosted the wedding of actors John Ritter and Amy Yasbeck.

The Murphy has been host to nationally acclaimed acts such as the Von Trapp Children. In 2010, the Murphy hosted conservative commentator Glenn Beck and broadcasts of his radio and television programs.The Murphy Christmas Show, showcasing such acts as dance troupes, barbershop quartets, children's choirs, and the Wilmingtones from Wilmington High School.

Matthew Callahan Log Cabin

The Matthew Callahan Log Cabin is located on South Third Street in Aspen, Colorado, United States. It was built in the early 1880s. In 1987 it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places along with a group of other historic properties in the city.

It was one of many log cabins built during Aspen's earliest years of settlement. Today it is one of the few buildings left in the city from that era,

Building

The cabin is located on the west side of South Third, just south of the intersection with West Hopkins Avenue, in Aspen's residential West End. There are a few single-family houses among the surrounding properties. The land is flat, with the foot of one of the ridges of Aspen Mountain just beyond West Hyman Avenue to the south. Many mature trees shade the houses in the neighborhood.

The building itself is a one-story structure built of rectangular hand-hewn logsstained a dark brown with mortar in between. At the joints the logs interlock. Above the logs the gable fields are sided in vertical flushboard. It is topped with a gabled shingled roof pierced in the center by a small brick chimney. A wooden screen door in the east corner of the south facade provides entrance.batten.

Next to the screen door the southern addition, longer than the main block but not as tall, protrudes. Other than being sided in vertical flushboard similar to that in the cabin's gable fields, it has identical treatment. A complementary screen door, the main entrance, opens onto a stone-tiled patio. Its east (front) facade has two large rectangular windows with wide plain wooden surrounds. Similar windows are on the other facades, including those of another addition on the west.

History

In the late 1870s, shortly after Colorado became a state, prospectors began crossing the Continental Divide at Independence Pass in search of silver deposits in the Roaring Fork Valley. Many set up their tents about ten miles (16 km) below the pass at the confluence of the Roaring Fork and its tributary Castle Creek first area they found suitable for large-scale settlement. It was called Ute City at first for the dominant local Native American tribe, but the prevalence of aspen trees in the forests soon gave it the name it has had ever since.


Matthew Callahan Log Cabin

Those same forests provided ample timber for the construction of the log cabins that would replace the early tents as Aspen grew. There were indeed many silver lodes in the mountains surrounding Aspen, and the possible fortunes drew the attention of Eastern investors. The growing city was designated the temporary seat of newly created Pitkin County in 1881,boom.

When it was built, the Callahan cabin probably had its entrance on the north. Aspen's 1889 city directory gives the family's address as 401 West Hopkins. At some point after 1890 that side was refaced in board-and-batten and the entrance moved to its current location on the addition. The original painted cedar shingles on the roof were replaced as well.

Eventually most of the original cabins were demolished to clear the way for more finished miner's cottages, and then larger wood frame or brick houses as the city prospered. Some were incorporated into other houses, as was the case with the Davis Waite House in the late 1880s. Those that remained after this period succumbed to fire or neglect in the years after the silver market collapsed following the 1893 repeal of the Sherman Silver Purchase Act. The Callahan cabin, which remained in the family for 65 years,

Necklace (horse)

Necklace (foaled 24 February 2001) is a British, Irish-trained Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare. She had her greatest success as a two-year-old in 2003 when she won two of her four races including the Debutante Stakes and the Moyglare Stud Stakes. In the following year failed to win but did finish third in the Beverly D. Stakes and fourth in the Epsom Oaks before being retired from racing with a record of two wins from nine starts in four different counties. She had very little success as a broodmare, producing only one minor winner.

Background

Necklace is a bay mare bred in England by the Hampshire-based Meon Valley Stud. As a yearling in October 2002, the filly was consigned to the Tattersalls sale and was bought for 600,000 guineas by the bloodstock agent Dermot "Demi" O'ByrneJohn Magnier's Coolmore Stud organisation. She was sent into training with Aidan O'Brien at Ballydoyle. During her racing career she raced for the partnership of Michael Tabor and Susan Magnier, usually carrying the blue and orange colours of Tabor.

She was sired by Darshaan who won the Prix du Jockey Club for the Aga Khan in 1984 before becoming a successful breeding stallion. The best of his other offspring included Dalakhani, Mark of Esteem and Kotashaan.Irish Oaks winner Colorspin, making her a half-sister to Opera House and Kayf Tara.

Racing career

2003: two-year-old season

Necklace was ridden in all of her races by Mick Kinane. On her racecourse debut ahe faced eleven opponents in a maiden race over six furlongs on 12 July at the Curragh. She was made the 3/1 favourite but despite recovering from a poor start she failed to overhaul the Jim Bolger-trained Soviet Belle and was beaten three quarters of a length into second place. The filly was then stepped up to Group 3 class for the Debutante Stakes over seven furlongs at the same track four weeks later and started 7/4 favourite against twelve opponents. She was restrained towards the rear before coming through to take the lead a furlong out and winning by a length from the British-trained Caldy Dancer with Red Feather in third.


Necklace (horse)

On 31 August Necklace was moved up again in class for the Group 1 Moyglare Stud Stakes and started 5/4 favourite in an eleven-runner field. Soviet Belle and Red Feather were again in opposition while the other fancied runners included River Belle (Princess Margaret Stakes) and Maroochydore (Silver Flash Stakes). Kinane restrained the filly in the early stages as her stablemate Oh So Precious set the pace before giving way to the Clive Brittain-trained Menhoubah approaching the last quarter mile. Necklace moved into third place a furlong out and finished strongly to take the lead and win by a length and a short head from Red Feather and Menhoubah.

On her final race of the year Necklace was sent to France for the Group 1 Prix Marcel Boussac over 1400 metres at Longchamp Racecourse on 5 October. She started favourite but never looked to have any chance of winning and came home tenth of the sixteen runners behind Denebola.

2004: three-year-old season

Necklace began her second season in the 191st running of the 1000 Guineas over the Rowley mile at Newmarket Racecourse on 2 May. She started at odds of 8/1 and made no impact, tiring in the last quarter mile and finishing twelfth behind Attraction. She did a little better in the Irish 1000 Guineas three weeks later when she came home sixth behind Attraction, beaten six lengths by the winner. On 4 June the filly was moved up in distance for the 225th Epsom Oaks over one and a half miles in which she finished fourth behind Ouija Board, All Too Beautiful and Punctilious.

In autumn Nacklace was sent to compete in the United States where she contested two races. In August she started a 25/1 outsider for the Beverly D. Stakes at Arlington Park and finished strongly to take third place, beaten half a length and a head by Crimson Palace and Riskaverse. At Belmont Park in September she started second favourite for the Garden City Breeders' Cup Handicap but finished fourth of the seven runners behind Lucifer's Stone.

Breeding record

After her retirement from racing Necklace became a broodmare for the Coolmore Stud. She was repeatedly mated with Sadler's Wells, who was her great-grandfather, or to that stallions male-line descendants. She produced one minor winner from eight foals:

Niederburg

Niederburg is an Ortsgemeinde – a municipality belonging to a Verbandsgemeinde, a kind of collective municipality – in the Rhein-Hunsrück-Kreis (district) in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. It belongs to the Verbandsgemeinde Hunsrück-Mittelrhein, whose seat is in Emmelshausen.

Geography

Location

The clump village of Niederburg lies at the edge of the Hunsrück near the Rhine with a view of three of the Middle Rhine's famous castles, standing in Oberwesel: the Schönburg, the Burg Gutenfels and the Burg Pfalzgrafenstein. The municipal area measures 6.78 km², of which 3.17 km² is wooded.

History

Niederburg is believed to have arisen sometime in the 10th century. Only in 1286, however, did Nyderinberc have its first documentary mention. The first settlers were charcoal makers, farmers and craftsmen. In 1309, it is known from evidence that there was a church in Niederburg, which Prince-Archbishop-Elector Werner von Falkenstein raised to parish church in 1386.

In the 14th century, the village had special privileges. Even in the time around 1550, it was second in population in the Electoral-Trier Amt of Oberwesel only to Oberwesel itself.


Niederburg

A disagreement between Prince-Archbishop-Elector Werner von Falkenstein and the town of Oberwesel escalated in 1390 into an armed confrontation, the so-called Weseler Krieg (“Wesel War” – Oberwesel was known as Wesel in those days). For the first time in the Rhineland’s history, fighting here involved cannon. These were emplaced on the nearby Niederenberg (mountain). The town lay under siege for more than a year before it finally gave up on 9 October 1391. Shortly thereafter, Niederburg acquired the form of its name that is still used now. Because of the war, Niederburg’s status as part of Oberwesel was abolished. There are even clues in documents from 1414 (“oppidum Nydernberg prope dictam Wesaliam”) that Niederburg had been raised to town.

In 1434, though, Niederburg’s autonomy was revoked, and through Archbishop Raban von Helmstatt’s actions, it was once again merged with the town of Oberwesel. Niederburg has formed a self-administering municipality since 1786. Beginning in 1794, it lay under French rule. In 1814 it was assigned to the Kingdom of Prussia at the Congress of Vienna. After the First World War, Niederburg was once again occupied by the French. In the Second World War, 52 bombs were dropped in and around Niederburg in an Allied air-raid shortly after 13:00 on 21 November 1944. The target is believed to have been the railway line that ran through a dale by Niederburg. Two of the bombs fell in the village centre, killing two people. Since 1946, Niederburg has been part of the then newly founded state of Rhineland-Palatinate.

Politics

Municipal council

The council is made up of 12 council members, who were elected by majority vote at the municipal election held on 7 June 2009, and the honorary mayor as chairman.

Mayor

Niederburg’s mayor is Jörg Oppenhäuser.

Coat of arms


Niederburg

Coat of arms

The German blazon reads: In silbernem Schild, über grünem Hügel (Dreiberg) ein rotes zinnengekröntes Burghaus mit 5 Fenstern und 2 Schießscharten, über dem Tor mit Fallgitter, in silbernem Schildchen ein rotes Kreuz.

The municipality’s arms might in English heraldic language be described thus: Argent in base a mount of three vert, above which a castle house embattled of six gules with five windows in fess of the field and two arrowslits, one each side of a gateway with half-open portcullis, above which an escutcheon of the field charged with a cross of the third.

The main charge in these arms refers to the municipality’s name, and is thus canting. “Castle” in German is "Burg". The charge is the Niederburg castle house, where cannon were deployed for the first time in military action in the Rhineland. The small inescutcheon above the gateway symbolizes the village's former allegiance to the Electorate of Trier. The “mount of three”, a charge called a Dreiberg in German, refers to the hilly countryside around Niederburg.

Further information about buildings

Saint Stephen’s Church

Niederburg's village church, whose patron by visitation protocol in 1657 is Saint Stephen, and which was first mentioned in 1309, still has its original Romanesque tower. This houses two bells from the Middle Ages which were poured in 1427 and 1477 by bellfounder Tyllmann von Hachenburg and which survived both the Thirty Years' War and the Second World War. The heavier bell, which weighs 1 350 kg, is named Maria, while the lighter one, weighing only 1 000 kg, is named Stephanus. In 1954, when the church was expanded, the municipality got two further bells. These came from the Mabilon Bellfoundry in Saarburg and weigh 520 kg and 500 kg. They are dedicated to Saint Joseph, Saint Lawrence and Saint Maria Goretti.


Niederburg

In the Middle Ages, Niederburg belonged to the archdeaconry of Karden and the rural chapter of Boppard. In 1802, Niederburg passed as a curacy in the newly formed canton of St. Goar to the Diocese of Aachen, although in 1824, it was transferred back to the Diocese of Trier. Since 1827, Niederburg has belonged to the deaconry of St. Goar.

Castle Niederburg

Of the former castle complex of Niederburg, there are only remnants left today. These are from the enclosing wall and the wall-lined moat. When and by whom the castle was destroyed is knowledge that has been lost to history.

Economy and infrastructure

Until 2000, there was winegrowing around Niederburg, but in that year, the last winegrower had his vines cleared, and no wine has been made in the municipality since.

Simeon Smith House (West Haven, Vermont)

Not to be confused with the nearby Simeon Smith Mansion.

The Simeon Smith House is a historic house on Main Road in West Haven, Vermont. Built in 1798–1800 to a design by William Sprat (or Sprats), a prominent housewright from Litchfield, Connecticut, it is a fine example of period Federal architecture. It was built for Simeon Smith, a wealthy businessman who moved here from Connecticut. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.

Description and history

The Simeon Smith House stands in a rural area of far eastern West Haven, on the north side of Main Road, a short way west of its junction with Vermont Route 22A, the principal north–south route in the area. The house is a 2+1⁄2-story I-house, built of wood, with a gable roof, clapboard siding, and rubblestone foundation. The main facade faces the road to the south, and has a central entrance flanked by sidelight windows and topped by a cornice. Windows are 19th-century two-over-two sash, with flanking shutters, and the roof line has a modillioned eave. The interior follows a center hall plan on the ground floor, and has a large, elaborately decorated ballroom taking up most of the second floor. An ell extends to the left, dating to a 1920s renovation done after a fire damaged an older ell.

The house was built in 1798-1800 for Simeon Smith, a wealthy businessman who had moved to the area (then part of Fair Haven) in 1787 from northwestern Connecticut. Smith's relationship with the designer William Sprat is not well understood. Sprat was active in the Litchfield, Connecticut area, and was apparently hired by Smith to at least draw up plans for this house; it is unclear if he actually worked on it. Smith and Sprat are buried in adjacent plots in a West Haven Cemetery.
