Domestic architecture of the American colonies and of the early republic . , however, an evolution is clearly traceable. At Wynnestay in 1689 rubble was usedthroughout; at Graeme Park, 1721, although the rear and ends are of rubble, thefront is of ashlar, very irregular in the height of its courses; in the Daniel Pastoriushouse, 1748, and at Whitby, 1754, the ashlar is more regular, although with coursesstill differing somewhat; at Cliveden (figure 33), after 1763, and in the later por-tion of the Bartram house, 1770, there is almost perfect regularity in the heightand length of the blocks. This did not prevent the more modest houses from lag- 64 THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY ging behind: Mill Grove, 1762, and the Johnson house in German town, 1768, bothhave rubble in parts. In Massachusetts ashlar appeared earlier, in the remarkablehouse built by Thomas Hancock in 1737, where the walls were of granite in coursesof uniform height, with trim of Connecticut sandstone (figure 34). In New York, the Van Cortlandt house at Lower Yonkers was built of rubble in 1748; in Vir-. tograph by Fran. Figure 39. Mount Pleasant, Philadelphia. After 1761 ginia, Mount Airy, perhaps the most ambitious house in the colony, 1758, hadcoursed ashlar of somewhat varying height, with the central pavilion and trim oflighter stone in regular courses (figure 35). Little moulded or carved detail was executed in stone, for skilful stone-cutterswere few. Nevertheless, there are notable instances, such as the pilasters of theHutchinson house in Boston (figures 36 and 37). Although they were built twoinches into the wall, it is almost inconceivable that these excellently understoodIonic capitals can date from the original erection of the house, between 1681 and1691. Possibly they were added after the fire which destroyed the cupola in 1748.The Marston house, the first brick dwelling in Salem, ascribed to 1707, as we haveseen, certainly had stone Corinthian capitals.1 At Drayton Hall, before 1758, 1 Bentley sa
