[J. Thomas Scharf (1886)] It is of re-cent construction, having taken the place of the old building which for so many years used to be a noted watering-station for market-men and farmers driving to Sing Sing with produce for the boats. It is the home of Lewis Ferris, another representative farmer of the town. Mr. Ferris came from Lewisboro' at an early date, and purchasing this place, began to raise potatoes. He succeeded wonderfully, and from his potato-fields has come his competence. He is an old man, widely-known and highly-esteemed, and lives in the enjoyment of his well-earned prosperity. His son Anthony resides on the Nelson Teed property, a mile and a half from Somers village south, and is also a practical farmer. One of the most attractive residences a the town is owned by Aaron B. Whitlock, and is located in the centre of fine grounds, at the intersection of two roads nearGolden's Bridge, on the east line of Somers. The mansion is large, in the modern style, with French roof, wide verandas, side porticoes, etc., and surround-ed by well-kept grounds. There is also a fine farm connected with the estate. The dwelling stands on the site of the Harvey Mead place, which forty years ago was owned and occupied by Harvey Mead, a far-mer and cattle speculator, and one of the first freight-ers on the Harlem Kailroad. Mr. Whitlock is from Lewisboro', and is engaged in an extensive mercantile business at Croton Falls. North of and adjoining his estate is that of George A. Teed, now owned by his son Allen.
