PATENT.

" Whereas there is a certaine lott of land upon this Island Manhattans, the which, by vertue of my warrant, hath been laid out for John Danielson, lying to the Northeast of Dewtell Bay, being in breadth by the River side forty rodd, and in length by the land of Jacobus Fabritius one hundred and twenty rod, bounded to the Northwest by the Commons, and to the Southwest by the land of David Du Four.

THE THOMAS ADDIS EMMET TRACT.
The distance of 120 rods given in this patent is not enough to carry the bounds of this tract as far West as the Third Avenue. The true Westerly line of this patent is shown on the map of the patents ante page 119. This Westerly extension is possibly due to an encroachment on the commons by the patentee and his grantees, there being no conveyance on record affecting the same. In a deed dated in May. 1811 (93 Convey- ances, page 455, hereinafter set forth), the fence of the then owner of this tract is said to have been 129 feet West of the West side of Third Avenue on the Southerly end, and 14 feet 6 inches West of said Avenue, on the Northerly end.
The following is the next conveyance of record affecting the title to tract in question :
ELIACOM ANDERSON and MARY, his wife, ANDERSON ALLBODY and ANNATIE, his wife, PIETER ANDERSON and CORNELIA, his wife, ABERAM ANDERSON and ELISABOT, his wife, LUCUS DE WITT and ENGOLTIE, his wife, SAMUEL STRIDE and ANNIE, his wife, JAMES ROBINSON and SELVIA, his wife, to
