[E.B. O'Callaghan (ed.) (1856)] Appendix received from Mij Lord Saye. Read 9th August, 1642. [ From the Original in the Eoyal Archives at llie Hague; File, West Indie.] Many of the English (his Majesty's Subjects) having been incorporated by his Majesty's letters patent and having, in order to obviate all difficulties, purchased the land from the natives, the acknowledged and right owners thereof, established divers factories on the river Coiicclecot, in New England, where they have experienced manifold molestations and insolences from the Dutch nation, who, having previously erected a small factory on the aforesaid river, claim, in virtue thereof, the right to the whole, and not only that, but to all the extent of country from Naragnnset Bay to Hudsons river, which they call by the name of New Netherland, although it had been granted by his Majesty to divers of his subjects, and is exclusively inhabited by the English, entered many protests against the peaceable proceedings of the English, towards whom they have transgressed in various manners and ways, adding thereunto sundry threats and haughty arguments. All which the English bore, and though no more than five or six Dutch, at most, reside on the aforesaid river Coaecticot, where there are exceeding two thousand English, yet the latter have not used any violence towards them, but treated them with all kindness; yea, have they been the means, under God, of saving their lives.
