There was a scramble for land. Land that had been bought from the state for ten shillings an acre in a few years rose to ten and twenty' dollars — lands with no improvements what- ever. Robert Morris was once the owner of a large part of Wayne coun- ty. Cayuga and Bridgeport were thriving places, with stores, shops, taverns. Titus' tavern at Cayuga was famous from Albany to Buffalo for its superior accommodations. Every mile or less was a wayside inn for the entertainment of man and beast. Ther...e was a demand for these inns. On the south side of the road on the hill at the lake, as has been said, was Mr. Moses' house, a long white house with a porch the whole length of the house — an inn. On the opposite side of the road was the home of Judge L, arzelere — Larzelere's inn. A traveler, as he noticed first one then the other, but not reading the latter sign c[uite correctly, ex- claimed: "Moses and La/. Arus! Both keeping tavern! What country am I traveling in?" A feature of the travel was the con- tinuous line of great red Concord coaches, each drawn by four or six horses — from fortj' to seventj^ five or more a day.
