Excerpt from Guide to the Ridge Hill Farms, Wellesley, Mass: And Social Science Reform; September, 1877
Are situated in Wellesley, Mass., fourteen miles from Boston by the Boston & Albany Railroad. They comprise eleven farms, owned by Wm. Emerson Baker, of Boston, who first bought, in 1868, two farms aggregating 230 acres. By subsequent purchases the estate now encloses 820 acres. On the west and south it has the Charles River for a boundary nearly four miles. About one mile northeast from the Pavilion Grove is a singularly formed Ridge over one mile in length, thickly shaded by Oak, Pine and Chestnut trees, making, with fern glens and weird nature, an unusually picturesque walk. This Ridge - the approach to which is too intricate to be found without a guide - suggested the name of the Ridge Hill Farms. But the owner has made such extensive improvements that a large area of these farms have now more of the characteristics of an Educational Park. Numerous private and quite original fêtes have been here given; some of them so extensive as to assemble three thousand guests. These have led to such publicity as to excite a wide-spread desire to visit this estate, so curiously combining art with nature - quaint history and comical amusements.
