A ' We are under renewed obligations to our vener- able fellow member, Rev. Dr. David Cole, of Yonkers, fgfmerly our Vice-President for Westchester County. He published in the Hzklory of Rockland Cozmzjf, Ngw York, the records of baptisms in the Dutch churchesof Tappan,rClarkstown, etc. These were without indexes. Some time ago he made up a complete index to all these baptisms, and presented to us a manuscript copy thereof written by his own hand, to which he added a list of -all marriages in Tappan, etc., of which he could discover the record. I-le has just sent us a manuscript copy of the recordsof the Kakiat Dutch Church, so that we now possess transcripts of all the records that are- in existence of the early Dutch churches of Rock- land County. Dr. Cole himself made the transla- tion of these records from the Dutch and 'copied them with his own hand--an invaluable service for which the Society should feel grateful.

78 ts of Land from the Indians city, consisting Of GI'-HU and from the Burgomasters, Indexes of Grantors and Grantees, Mortgagofs and Moftgagees Of lands for all years in which the recorded convey- ances have been preserved, together with a few miscellaneous transactions. This completes the publication of abstracts of all the Dutch records we know of in the City Clerk's office. It is greatly to be desired that the city 21Ufh01'itiCS Should Publish all the early records in full. During the past year we have made arrange- ments with Columbia University by which the cus- tody of our Dutch books has been transferred during our pleasure to its Library. This will make available to Dutch students and others this valu- able collection, including the unique and interesting Grotius Bibliography presented to us by our fellow- member Hon. Robert B. Roosevelt. Under the auspices of our Society Columbia University has given during the past few weeks an- other course of lectures on Dutch Literature by Mr. Van Noppen, in the lecture room of the Reformed Church. - At the December meeting of the Trustees, on the suggestion of the Secretary, it was voted to send an address of congratulation to Queen Wil- helmina on the occasion of her marriage. Our President, Dr. Van Dyke, prepared a most felicitous address, which was read to you at our last banquet. This was exquisitely engrossed and bound in an al- bum and sent through our American Minister at The Hague. We received courteous acknowledgment from the Queen through her Minister.
