PILOT ISLAND
Dr. Walter Otis Put-—
chases Place Where
Eben Hill Made His
Home— Price About
$100,000
Dr. Walter Otis of 471 Park ave-
nue, New York city. has purchased
the property known as “Pilot Is-
land" together with about one :1ch
on the mainland at Hickory Bluff.
IThe sale was consumated through
3011: of the bodies.
i
the office of Reed Ilaviland. The
property was held at $100,000.
On the mainland property there
.--1 two houses. a garage and pier.
3111 on Pilot‘lsland there is a. large
stone house. a stone boathouse. a
guest cottage and a care—takcr's
cottage.
Pilot'Island has an interesting
history.
The property. which “as original—
ly called Tavern Island. was former-
ly owned by the late Eben Hill. The
house was builLabout 30 years ago
by Mr. Hill, who spent $200,000 in
fixing up the place. He called it
Pilot Island. because the original
settler on the island was an old
sea pilot, Captain Joe Merrill.
The place was sold some years
ago to the Nation Realty company.
which in turn disposed of itio Harry
Atterbury Smith. Mr. 'Ilaviland
acting 1'01:an Smith sold it to Dr.
Otis.
The property has been unoccu-
pied for two or three years and the
new owner has announced his in-
tention of making several improve-
ments. both to the Island houses
and the mainland buildings. Dr.
Otis vrill make. the Island for his
summer home.
The new owner is a graduate of
Harvard, class of 1870. He was al-
so the captain of the first Harvard
crew. His daughter and son—in~law
will make their home with him.
Pilot Island is unique among the
many spots along the Sound.
It is located at the mouth of the
Norwaik River. It is exactly in the
middle of the harbor. with deep
water all around it. thus providing
a good anchorage. To the East of
the Island the", is anchorage for
large vessels. and at times during
bad weather in the Sound. this Har-
bor of refuge is filled with shipping.
The island is within three or four
miles by road on the mainland from
the summer colony at Tokonekc, and
within about six miles of the sum-
mer colony at Collcnder's Point.
Pilot Island is reached from a shore
landing at Hickory Blufi.
