Excerpt from The Old Stadt Huys of New Amsterdam: A Paper Read Before the New York Historical Society, June 15th, 1875
By the permission of the New York Historical Society, I have been allowed to print and place before the public another historical paper connected with the Dutch history of this city.
The following account of the Old State House, or Town Hall, of New Amsterdam, will doubtless be found quite as interesting as was the paper on the "Old Streets of New York," also read by Mr. Gerard before the New York Historical Society.
The legal trials of the Dutch period, as they have been transmitted to us, vividly portray the manners, modes of thought and social condition of our Dutch predecessors, and open a wide field for antiquarian research.
