Notes:

Halftone reproduction of a photograph of the Newtown Square Inn, Delaware County. Part of the building is said to have been erected in 1729. In 1744 the inn was kept by John West, father of the painter Benjamin West. The hostelry was first called "The Square," then "Newtown Square,"  "The Wagon" and "Black's Inn" and finally by "Newtown Square Inn."

Clipped from an unidentified newspaper.
