Hudson discovered the river known by his name in 1609. During the next ten years many Dutch ships were in New York waters, and Manhattan Island had a small settlement of traders. Magisterial authority, if there was any in this little trading community, probably followed the rules of the sea, with sea captains as arbiters, and with the certainty that capital offenses would be referred to the home government. In 1621 the Dutch West India Company was chartered, with wide powers and charged with the keeping of "good order, police, and justice." The charter contained many guarantees of freedom in social, political and religious life, but reserved final judicial authority for the States General. Next in magisterial authority were the directors of the company, who exercised supervision of, and accepted responsibility for, the judicial acts of their provincial officials, the superintendents of the trading posts and the ship captains.

  • Key to Castello Plan . Description of Plates
    C.PL.82e. KEY TO CASTELLO PLAN . DESCRIPTION OF PLATES 8~-82-e C. PLATE 82 AFBEELDINGE VAN DE STADT AMSTERDAM IN NIEUW NEEDERLANDT (The Castello Plan) Manuscript in pen and ink and 25 x 18§1l Date depicted: Summer of water- colours on paper, 1660. mounted on canvas. Date of drawing: Probably 1665-70. Artist: Copied by an unknown draughtsman from an original drawing by Jacques Cortelyou. Owner: The Italian Government; preserved in the Villa Castello, near Florence, Italy. The following French inscription (partly torn away) in the right-hand lower margin of the view is evidently in a later hand. It is the only suggestion of a possible provenance other than that suggested in the Introduction: Vue dIe Nieu] Amste[rdam au] Canada [aujour d'hui] Appel [Ii New] Yorck A similar but less complete inscription on the Castello copy of the Manatus Map is preceded by the number 74. Similar inscriptions are found on many of the other drawings in this series. Two water-marks are vaguely discernible: the first, just to the left of the Fort, a crowned shield and fleur-de-lis; the second, outside of the wall near the third bastion, the monogram I HS. Reproduced and described here for the first time. A careful study of the Castello Plan, in comparison with the Nicasius de Sille List [1], which is dated July 10, 1660, has led to the conclusion that most of the data embodied in the Plan were compiled before this List was made, but that the actual draughting was not completed until some time afterward; or, in other words, that the Castello Plan is based upon the Cortelyou Survey ordered on June 7, 1660, and completed just in time to be despatched in the ship which carried Stuyvesant's well-known letter of October 6th of that year, addressed to the directors in Amsterdam, and containing the words: "After ['1 "List of the survey (or census) of Houses on the 10 July 1(60: within this town Amsterdam in N: Neder­ iant," by Nicasius De Sille.
