-- served by the centre chimney, is evident although arrangements-.due to - the windmill addition--are not what they were when the house was built. -- - aigular directly within the front There is no longer the tight, stair - ,- - door, for this ascent was removed in 1870. At that time the room to the -right of the entry was converted from a parlour to a sorb of lobby, in I the south-west portion ofwhich an ample staircase of simple Victorian -- - ‘;style was placed to servehoth the main house and the windmill addition. - east of the --- -- To the left of the entry, the dining-room occupies the side first floor and is servedfrom the ell appendages- The original kitchen - -- -- * - or keeping-room takes un the rear-centre portion of the first floor, and - -

- its old hearth and ovens,at some time given a discreet Greek Revival - -: - - trim, are still to be seen. The lowest stage of the windmill forms, on -

* the first floor, an octagonal sitting-room or study; it has little wooden -

- trim beyond the encasements of the inward-sloping upright timbers of the -: ------mill. - - - .- -- * -, -I - .

* -- - :1- On the second floor of the house, the 1870 stair has altered the . ‘I

- - - original room arrangement-at the south-west, though not elsewhere. Here, ------wide-hoard flooring remains, as is not the case downstairs. The large -I - - main hedcharnber to the north-east was - slightly "modernised" in the XIX -: 1. - - : 1 -- -t - Century by the application of a plain Greek Revival mantel. On this level, one walks into the second stage of the windmill, used as a study - -,

- by Longfellow when visiting. Here the interior, walls have been brought - -,

- out to run. across and conceal the mill’s uprights, but they have also -- - ‘‘‘- -, - been intruded into on either side of each window to provide tall, narrow-

- hook-shelving, treated as part of each window enframement and bordered -by -

- - original hardware is still to be seen, and to the two remaining stages of - - - - ,- mill tower. and these stairs numerous - - the Beneath beside are inserted ‘ . cupboard spaces. The third level in the mill annex is a guest room pre- - sumably that used by Longfellow en suite with study below, while- -- his - -Y - the dome-like bonnet--its interi now all lathed a plastered and what -, rernains of the mill’s old gears now bod-in--has sd as a play-room - - - - , - - I -, -.: and is now used for storage.

£ ile Windmill Cottage has a minimal doonjard area o its Division -- Street frtage, there is a small lawn at its east end, where there is’an; -

In its new location and use--stripped of most - - 47 -. of its mechanisms, of its rotating blades, and -somewhat remodelled--the - - mill -‘ provided four rooms, one above the other: that on the first floor is - - - : - said to have been Professor - Greene’ study, that on the second Long- - - - *‘.* - fellow’s sanctum when visiting, and those on the -third and fourth floors 5

With this new combination of old elements, - - - - Windmill Cottage exemplifies the love of the picturesque and the pleasure - --. -: -- derived from amusing and romantic effects that was a strong part of the -- - Y:.. taste of the time.

- STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE - - - ,, - - 1 ‘ - Aside from its picturesque architectural qualities, its unusual silhouette and its ‘&isually enjoyable setting in a context of other £ L old dwellings on the crest of tree-lined Division Street--a section which is to East Greenwich rather like what College Hill i5 to Pro-c-i- - - dence--this house has an interesting history in resciect to its sue- visi_;::’ o cession of occupants, their activities, friends, connections ‘and - tors. -

In 1800 or thereabouts Martin Nichols, a mariner, purchased the 4

quarter-acre corner lot at Division and West Streets and built the I

-- H existing ‘!cottage. By about 1805, however, it was sold to William -*;i- -- GreezQ member of a family active, in early settlement of the Warwick- .-- --. 4 - i- -" .-- East tireenwich area,- notable because of the place taken by General --

:.-.- -- - in the Revolutionary War, and ever since prolific and. prominent in this section--subsequent members appearing and reappear- - ing in the history of Windmill Cottage. After three years, William - -.-: - Greene sold the house to a relative, Franklin Greene, nephew of-the -.

-- -- great general. After another three years it -was sold to Ethan Clarke, prcepering first president of the Rhode Islard Central Bank.

Clarke had one daughter, Anna Maria, who married Nathanael Greene, the general’s son, this union produced two sons, one of whom was Professor George Washinrton Greene, educated at but never a teacher £ at . In the meantime, the cottage was ac- , quired in 1835 by Henry Elbrtdge, who lived in it and operated the H grist-mill on the optosite street-corner until milling became unpro -: -- fitable in l81t3. - . - - - -v:- -- --v UY- H -

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, the famous poet and Harvard professor, had net George Washington Greene when both were travelling in Italy in £ their youth, and a lifelong friendship developed--both men ‘ £ frequently exchanging visits in East Gr9enwich and in Cambridge, Massachusetts, - where both had membership ina literary group known as the Dante Society Greene, who had a wife and family which Longfellow--himself twice a widower--doubtless enjoyed, was somewhat improvident in money matters, and Longfellow benevolently and continuously assisted his £ friend. In 1866 the cottage in 1ast Greenwich came up for sale, and Longfellow bought it as a gift and residence for the Greenes prudently deeding it to the wife and also as a place where he would be welcome £ See Continuation Sheet 2.

-8. Significance. - - - --

- - - Since the time of ProfessOr Greene and his family Windmill Cottage - : - - has hada fortunate succession of owners who have iven the -house sym- -

- pathetic care, haven taken pride in it and received there a varied and -- -- - important stream of persons of note in literary, educational, humanitarian

- and antiquarian accomplishment--many of whom have remarked on the cottage

- in their memoirs cr othel writings. - Acquiring the house in 1936, the - -- present owners have kept}a continuing share in-this traditional-hospi - - - - tality. - - -- -

While the foregoinR history may not be known to the r?eneral public, f?-:

Windmill Cottage itself Is to that public--both Rhode Islanders and out- - of-state tourists--a very well-known landmark: frequently pointed- out and viewed, often photographed and illustrated. It is an important enhance-; - ment to its immediate and historic residential enclave which includes, £

quite nearby, the General - Varnum house, - already - listed on the National’ - - Register. - - - - I -- - I -
