Your memorialist further shew, that The prosecution and defence of the said suits have involved your memori- alists in great difficulties and heavy expenses.


That from the investigation into the Title of the said Islands to which the said suits and especially the said suit in Chancery has given rise some doubts have arisen whether the documentary title of your memorialists to the said Islands under the said Patents is free from exception notwithstanding their right to the same hath never been controverted except as before stated.


That it is not pretended that the said Islands are in- cluded in any grant hostile to the title and possession of your memorialists other than that to the aforesaid William Nicoll which it has been determined as aforesaid did not include them.


On which account The Title to the said Islands if not vested in your memorialists under some or one of the aforesaid Patents remains in the people of the state.


Your memorialists with all due respect to the Judicial Tribunals would humbly observe That the question rela- tive to the validity of Their title to the Islands was only incidentally before the Court in the suits between Them and the guardians of Nicoll and that The suggestions un- favorable to their claim to the Islands were in a great measure extrajudical. That several material documents were not carried forward and particularly That the Indian deed of 1705 was not before the Court in any of The said trials and altho' a claim resting on no other foundation would be of no avail at present yet many titles on Long Island originating at that period have no other or better foundation.


That the doubts then suggested have subjected your memorialists to all the mischiefs that arise from uncer- tainty of title and to the interruption and endless litigation which it is calculated to produce.


288


HUNTINGTON TOWN RECORDS.


That The prudential regulations which your memori- alists have been in the practice of making for a long series of years for the preservation of the grass in order to render it as extensively beneficial as possible are disre- garded. The grass is now cut before it has got its growth, by which reason it is diminished in quantity & injured in quality and many poor people who heretofore obtained a supply sufficient for the support of a small stock during the winter are deprived of the means of doing it.


That the people of Islip who till the decision of the Court against the title of Nicoll had uniformly acknowledged his pretended Title and acted under it-In order to per- petuate the evils resulting from the present state of the Islands have for two years past endeavoured to defeat your memorialists in their application to the Legislature for a confirmation of their title to the Islands.


Your memorialists Therefore in order that all doubts as to their title to the said Islands may be removed and the same confirmed and in consideration of their very old and undisputed claim of title to the said premises except as before stated and their long and uninterrupted possession and acts of ownership over the same except as in like manner stated and the vexation Trouble and large expence which they have been subject to in the prosecution of the said suits. Do pray the honorable the Legislature That they may be quieted and confirmed in the possession and enjoyment of the said Islands.


And to that end That all the right title interest and estate of the people of This state may by a proper law to be passed for that purpose be granted to and vested in your memorialists for the benefit of the freeholders and Inhabitants of said Town of Huntington in like manner as the other lands granted and confirmed unto the said Town in and by the Patents herein before mentioned or any of

[REPORT OF A COMMITTEE OF THE LEGISLATURE.]


[1818.]


Mr Coldin from the select committee to whom was re- ferred the memorial of the Trustees of the freeholders & commonality of the Town of Huntington in the County of Suffolk and the petition of the freeholders and Inhabitants of the Town of Islip in the said County Respectfully re ports that the property referred to in the memorial and petition is three certain Islands called respectively Cap tree, Grass and Oak Islands situated in the great bay which extends along the South side of Long Island.


That the memorialists and petitioners each pray a grant of these Islands from the state the former on the ground of having both a documentary and posessory title and the other as having an equitable claim to the grant which they aske on account of the situation of the said Islands the same being in the waters of the said bay which is con- tiguous to the south bounds of the said Town of Islip.


That the memoralists & petitioners made similar appli- cations to the Legislature last year which were referred by this honorable House to a special Committee which re- ported thereon the Isth of February last and to which re-


290


HUNTINGTON TOWN RECORDS.


port for the further information of the House your Com- mittee pray leave to refer.


That the allegation of the memorialists as to their pos- session of the said Islands being denied by the Petitioner your committee did not find themselves competent to ex- amine the question so as to be warranted in forming any opinion in respect to it.


That the documents produced by the memoralists have not satisfied your Committee that the memoralists have a perfect legal title to the said Islands but if they have either a documentary or possessary title they cannot want a grant from the state.


The Petitioners do not pretend to any legal title but think that the situation of the premises gives them an equitable claim to the grant for which they pray. They being willing to accept the same with the reservation of the rights of the memoralists to them and of the rights of all other persons.


Your Committee thinks that there might be some foun- dation for their claim were it not that the memorialists assume to have a title which they have more than once attempted to maintain in our Courts. Your Committee think that the state should not make a grant which would give to any a power which without it they would not have to litigate the title of the memorialists.

NOTE .- An act of the Legislature of this State, passed in 1799, providing for the gradual emancipation of slaves, au- thorized the owners of negro slaves to set them free on condi- tion of such slaves being under fifty years of age (afterwards reduced to forty-five) and being capable of supporting them- selves. Overseers of the Poor were given power to examine into each case, on the application of the slave owner, and certify in writing their approval, which certificate was to be filed in the Town Clerk's office. There is a small bound volume in the Town Clerk's office entitled, "Manumission of Slaves," which contains these certificates giving freedom to certain negroes, where the master had applied to the Over- seers for the purpose of freeing them. As these certificates are verbose in form it has been thought best to give a digest of this book in a note, rather than print its contents in full. Slaves were set free by their owners in Huntington between 1799 and 1825 as follows :

Under the act of 1799, it was provided that all children born of any woman being a slave after the 4th day of July of that year, should be deemed to be born free, and it required every master or mistress to certify the age and sex of every child and file such certificate in the Town Clerk's office. The book above referred to contains a large number of such certificates filed within the dates above mentioned.
