                    Pamela Dunham conducted a private school here before the War of 1814.  The British used the basement as a hospital in

                    1814 and left some of their wounded behind them.  The British half buried their dead across the street in the garden of

                    Mrs. Polly Averill (now the site of the Baptist Church).  The Americans afterwards buried them in Riverside Cemetery .

                    The section on the right and a rebuilt roof are twentieth century additions, but the original also had a hipped roof.
