His village lot comprised the lots now occupied by Van Home Hall and Myers' stores, having a front on State street of 105 feet.
   In 1692, he bought the lot on the east corner of State and Church streets, — 170 feet on the former and 160 feet on the latter street. This lot was originally granted to Teunis Cornelise Swart, by patent of date Jan. 15, 1667; on his death, his wife Elizabeth married Jacob Meese Vrooman, of Albany, to whom the magistrates of Schenectady gave a deed of the same, of date Feb. 7, 168|. Vrooman dying, his widow again married Wouter Uythoff, with whom she united Jan. 4, 1692, in a conveyance of said lot to Claas Laurense Van Purmerend [alias Van der Volgen], — it " being a corner lot over against the Blockhouse (te weten de kerk) ['to wit the church], 200 feet long [on Church street] — 170 ft. long [on State street], having south and west des heeren straet ('the public streets') [State and Church streets], and to the east Jan Labatie," according to deed of Feb. 7, 1682/3; excepting a piece conveyed to Esaias Swart, by deed of July 30, 1681. This latter parcel was taken from the rear of the whole lot, 40 ft. front on Church street and is now number 31 and owned by Mr. Marten De Forest.

   Cornells vander Donck, at Breda
   This 1st of August 1641, in Amsterdam
   Through indisposition I have been unable to answer you sooner; am now only in fair health. The tailor from breda with his wife and still other company, together 10 persons large and small, set sail for New Netherland on Tuesday last; may God be with them. They have good weather but the wind has changed and become contrary; I fear that they will have to seek shelter in England. I could still use a smith's helper and a brickmaker. A ship is being made ready which I hope will lie ready to sail in a month; it would be well if the men could go across in that ship, but this you must know that there is a smith in the country but no brickmaker, so that the brickmaker must have a boy or other help, unless he could burn brick alone. Vale.

   Comelis vander Donck, at bredael
   This 14th of May 1642, in Amsterdam
   I received the letter of the 4th instant from your wife, but my absence has delayed the answer. I have received no letter from the tailor [Jan Verbeeck] but understand that he has arrived and that his wife is sick. I hope that they are already now in the colony. As the wind is now east, the Company makes much haste with the ship, so that you will please as soon as possible send the boys hither with whatever else you intend to send. If this wind continues, the ship could run out to sea in eight or ten days, but if it changes there might be some delay. However, one should not trust to that; it is time that the people and goods come at once. The minister and his wife have arrived already and will today or tomorrow put their things on board, so that you ought not to wait any longer. Vale.
