“The small widow’s walk on the roof was probably used by John Wharton to watch his ships as they slipped through the inlet to the Assawoman Creek at the foot of the hill. He is said to have done his share of smuggling, like many another marine merchants of the times.”
Dorothy and Richard Pratt, A Guide to Early American Homes North & South, Volume II, 1956.
