RECENT ACCESSIONS

HE Library's purchases include the original manuscript of "A Map of the Survey & Partition of Oriskany otherwise called Oriskany Patent, made under the direction of Abraham Ten Eyck, Peter Schuyler and Christopher Peak, Agents, by G. Lansing, Surveyor, the 19th January in the year 1786," on a scale of forty chains to one inch. This patent, granted April 18, 1705, by the then Governor of New York, is the earliest known transaction of land now lying within the limits of Oneida County, covering 32,625 acres, lying along the Mohawk River and including the present city of Rome, which is the site of Fort Stanwix and Fort Schuyler, where the battle of Oriskany was fought during the American Revolution. The survey of 1786 was made pursuant to the legislative requirements growing out of lands held under forfeiture of persons attainted. Ten Eyck, Schuyler and Peak were appointed agents to partition and Lansing as surveyor, by Colonel Frederick

Visscher, of Oriskany battle fame, then first judge of Montgomery County.

Another purchase of local interest is a release of a lot of land on the east side of Maiden Lane, dated November 19, 1730, from John Miln and his wife Mary, a daughter of Stephanus Van Cortlandt, the first lord of the Manor of Cortlandt, to William Vesey, first rector of Trinity Church, witnessed by James Alexander and James Lyne. It is interesting to call attention to the two autographs of James Lyne, who made a survey of the city at this time, which is better known as the "Bradford Мар."

New York City is also represented by a purchase of a collection of about sixty pieces of the papers of Captain Noah Scovell, merchant of Saybrook, Conn., and New York City, 1794-1825, largely relating to the origin, etc., of the New York Dry Dock Company, which was chartered, with bank privileges, on April 12, 1825. Also by the original minute book of the Democratic Anti-Abolition, State Rights Association of the City of New York, 1863-1868.

British military history is strengthened by a purchase of four volumes which were at one time in the library of Sir Charles Frederick, who was Surveyor of the Ordnance of England. Three of the volumes have his large armorial bookplate, while one has embossed on its sides the arms of the Prince of Wales. One volume consists of engrossed records and letters relating to the British military establishment and its equipment in Europe and America, from 1642-1766; another consists of precedents and orders for firing guns upon triumphal and thanksgiving days, occasions of peace, royal coronations, birthdays, deaths, etc., from 1683 to 1759; a third volume shows allowances and wages in the military and civil service of the ordnance of England, about 1759-1764; and a fourth volume is a record copy of letters written or received by Sir Charles Frederick from 1761 to 1766, among the exchanges being those of the Duke of Newcastle; the Lords of Ligonier, Lorne, Loudoun, Stanhope, and Holland; the Earls of Cathcart, Bute, Albermarle, Shelburne, and Denbigh; the Marquis of Granby; Count La Lippe; Generals Michelson and Napier; the Lord Mayor of London, and George Grenville.
