[Robert Bolton, Jr. (1848)] May death's best slumbers occupy thy urn — The heap that hides thee nature's livery wear; O be ihou sacred in the silent bourne, Till time rolls round the great Sabbatic year. born at New London the 5th November, 1770, she deceased at her residence, Peekskill, on the 10th January, 1811, aged 40 years, 2 months and 5 days,^c. &c. Likewise a marble obelisk to the memory of Anne van Cort-landt, wife of Gen. Pierre van Cortlandt; — " She is not dead, but sleepeth." Also monuments to Stephen, Gilbert and Gertrude van Cort-landt. To the west of the cemetery, at the entrance of the neck proper, stood the Indian castle or fort of Kitchawan, one of the most an-cient fortresses south of the Highlands. The narrow pass which it occupied was well protected on the north by Indian Swamp, and on the south by the salt meadows. It is said to have been erected at a very early date by the sachem Croton, as a convenient ren-dezvous for the assembling of his war and hunting parties, and also for the object of commanding the rich treasuries of the Hud-son and the wide estuary of the Croton. We have previously shown that Matsewakes was chief sachem of Kitchawan as early as 1641. At a short distance east of the fort, on the south edge of Haunt-ed Hollow, is situated the Indian burying-ground of Kitchawan.
