The deponent, 53 years old, resident in Pennsylvania, knows certain
inhabitants of Montague and Sandy Town, and that these towns, except for a certain
settlement at Mackhackamack, belong to New Jersey. The deponent also knows Minisink
Island, but does not know any trees on it or along the Delaware which were marked as the
boundary between New York and New Jersey. The deponent says that Mashippenkunk belongs
to New Jersey. He believes that the land on the Fishkill is under the government of New
Jersey, and that the inhabitants of Sendiaweghwangh near the Delaware pay taxes to New
Jersey. Signed, Jacobus Quick, his mark. In Jay's hand.
