CORRIGENDA.
Inaccuracies in proof-reading, easily corrected by any in- telligent reader, are not noted.
Page 1 .- The note at the bottom of the page, contradicting the text, inserted without the knowledge of the writer, is regarded by him as making statements not founded on the best authority.
Page 2 .- Omit the two last periods in Chapter II, first par- agraph, beginning with " The Hudson River;" also, the gratuitous note at the bottom of the page.
Page 14 .- Last line, first column, read "2.61 feet " instead of " 1712 feet; " and in the note, a little less than three feet.
Page 41 .- Under July, 1698, read " Hendrick Hansen " in- stead of " House."
Page 43 .- Last line save one, in first column, "probably " should read "properly."
Page 73. - Line II, from bottom of second column, read
"Joel " instead of " Jared L." Mayer, 1838-41. Also, line 20, "Colonel Philip," of revolutionary fame, and not " Mayor Philip," bad his seat at Cherry Hill. See page 291.
Page 618. - Tabernacle in place Emmanuel.
Page 675 .- First line of note, read "Barnard " instead of "Brainard."
Page 679 .- David P. l'age was first Principal of Albany Normal School. The " Legislative Act " was passed May 7, 1844.
Page 691 .- Read " Academian " in place of " Academi- cian."
Page 697 .- In line 33, second column, read 1849, and "Lodge " in place of "Lady's "
