This page is found to be a copy, whole or in part, of a "declaration," drawn up by Jacob Leisler, of New York, May 31, 1689, which was soon after published as a pamphlet in Boston, "but not affixed, or no copy allowed to be had." It was at the beginning of the revolution in New York, just after the seizure of Sir Edmund Andros, whose government had included that colony. Citizens and soldiers, under the lead of Capt. Jacob Leisler, Lieut. Henry Cuyler and others, seized the fort and placed Leisler in power, awaiting orders from the new sovereigns of England.
The grammatical construction of this transliteration, though bad enough, will perhaps compare favorably with that of many writings that have come down to us in plain characters. Doubtless we have made some mistakes, but the page given is substantially as follows, line for line :

SUPPLEMENT.
An account of the proceeding at New York 1689
A
declaration of the inhabitants and soldiers belonging under the several companies of the trained bands of New York
We declare that notwithstanding our several prayers and grievances these many years
under a . power possessed by our late popish Govr Dongan and several of his wicked creatures and pensioners, councillors now to Left Govr
Nicholson : we were resolved to expect with great patience our redemption from England expecting to have part of that gracious deliverance procured under God
by His Royal Highness William Henry Prince of Orange but when we chal- lenged our
liberty property and the lives we were cajolled and terrified out of our reasons but at last some being threatened by the said Lieutenant Govr Nicholson
and with a pistol presented against the corporal and said to the Lieutenant Cuyler that he would set the town on fire for doing our loyal duty :
we have thought fit for our security and fear to be liable to
answer for the life of every Protestant that might have perished and every house burnt
or destroyed if we bear . . longer in submission and also seeing daily arrive from several parts officers and soldiers who were entertained by the said Lieutenant
Govr Nicholson in the fort besides his several soldiers of which there was a number of papists contrary to the law of England by which new comers some of the burghers being threatened of some design against them in a few days we thought
delay dangerous so we have unanimously resolved : to live no longer in such . . danger but to secure the fort better which we have under God with succor without resistance and bloodshed effected and we declare to be entirely and openly opposed to papists and their religion and therefore expecting orders from England we shelter and guard surely and effectually the said fort in the behalf of the power that now governeth in England to surrender to the person of the Protestant religion that shall be nominated or sent by the power aforesaid this post our most secure . that we to manifest as well to the power aforesaid that God hath pleased to submit us to as to other persons to avoid their reproaches that they could otherwise in J. Leisler by the aforesaid inhabitants :
