Excerpt from A History of Long Island, From Its First Settlement by Europeans, to the Year 1845, With Special Reference to Its Ecclesiastical Concerns: In Two Parts; I. Its Physical Features and Civil Affairs; II. Annals of the Several Towns, Relating Chiefly to Ecclesiastical Matters General histories of the early settlement and progress of this territory are indeed extant. The Honourable Sums \voon, whom the writer is proud to acknowledge as his townsman, and the friend and counsellor of his childhood and youth, we are indebted for the first detailed history of this interesting field. The track thus ably struck out, has been laboriously pursued by benjamin F. Thompson, who, in addition to much important information, has laid before the public eye, a great mass of ancient documents, which cannot fail to be both interesting and useful.
