Dutch
House from the Stockade area, Schenectady, N.Y. (a few miles from Albany)
"On the other side, across, the street, was an old house that was called the Dutch House--a peculiar structure dating from the earliest colonial time, composed of bricks that had been painted yellow, crowned with a gable that was pointed out to strangers, defended by a rickety wooden paling and standing sideways to the street" (18). |
