Rural Gothic cottages on the Hudson

Mr. Sheldon's residence (Fig. 60), in the same neighborhood, furnishes us with another example of the Rural Gothic mode, worth the study of the amateur. Captain Perry's spirited cottage, near Sing Sing, partakes of the same features; and we might add numerous other cottages now building, or in contemplation, which show how fast the feeling for something more expressive and picturesque is making progress among us.
