[J. Thomas Scharf (1886)] Thus the same property bought for the Dutch West India Company by Governor Stuyvesant, in July, 1649, was sold again to Connecti-cut by the Indians in 1662. Three years after that it was seized by the English,as property of the Dutch West India Company, and later on — that is, from 1681 to 1684 — it was sold again by the sachems of Weckquaesqueek to Frederick Phil ipse, by whom it was incorporated into his manorial estate. A simi-lar instance is that connected with the case of Thomas Pell, who, in 1654, came over from Connecticut, and began a settlement near Vredeland, in Westchester, upon lands " which had long before been bought and paid for " by the Dutch. Governor Stuyvesant sent Cornelius Van Tienhoven, the fiscal, to forbid the English from settling there, but Pell, disregarding Governor Stuyvesant's mandate, soon ai -rward pur-chased from the Indian Sachem Wampage, or " Ann Hoock." as he called himself after the murder of Mrs. Ann Hutchinson at the Hoock, and from five others of his tribe, a large tract of land that had been sold to the Dutch already, including the present town of Pelham. Among those who had come over to New Amster-dam from the old country at an early day, as early at least as 1653, was "the Honorable Frederick Philipse, of East Friesland, in Holland." The orthography of the name is given variously.
