Lent's Cove and Centreville. — About one mile south of the centre of Peekskill is Lent's Cove, where are located the brick-yards of Charles Southard, employing about fifty men, and of John Pierce, em-ploying about twenty-five men. From this point south to the Croton River, the manufacture of bricks forms the leading industry. Within these limits are twenty-four brick yards, giving emploj nent to not far from nine hundred men, and manufacturing about one hundred million bricks yearly. This industry was probably begun by one of the Lents, at Lent's Cove, not far from the beginning of the present cen-tury.
