N 16 2 4 the first Settlement within the confines of the present Empire State of New York was made by the Dutch West I ndia Company at 1 Fort Orange (now Albany ) . In 6 2 6 other colonists arrived at Manhattan l an efi ected I s d with Peter Minuit , and in that year there had been its settle ment, the purchase of the island from the Indians, and consolidation of all n families i New Netherland at the southern end , which was called Fort

Amsterdam . This settlement was never wholly disintegrated . It was never n aba doned . In these beginnings are rooted the origin of the City of New

York . 192 6 n For several years prior to the year , there was great expecta cy n z among numerous orga i ations of men and women , historically minded, that the year 192 6 would produce a climax of celebrations in the city and under ofﬁ cial auspices worthy of the leading city of the western hemisphere . Work ing drawings for exhibitions and pageantry had been completed for use on ﬂ n several oors of the Gra d Central Palace , where for a month or more it was designed to corral thousands of Visitors and focus attention upon the great

- C . n birthday of the ity Not only did this feature of a celebratio die still born , but no other signiﬁ cant observance of the city’s attainment in the historical ﬁ rmamen t was carried out . The exhibition in the Main Exhibition Room of the Library was prepared o Or in in c d atio n with the expected celebrations . It turned out to be an event n by itself, as well as the only one from which the public could derive a understanding of the foundations of New York history . It was arranged in

- five fl at forty showcases and on Sixteen sides of upright standards . The ex hibitio n z — was organi ed systematically . The arrangement of one half was h c Th . e primarily bibliograp i al , regional , and topical other half was par ticul arl n fi y chro ological , from the rst recorded discovery of New York z z 152 4 s n n 16 74 Harbor by Verra ano in to the end of the Dutch j uri dictio i , 2 THE NEW YORK PU BLI C LI BRARY

or a period of one hundred and ﬁ fty years . The material s out o fwhich the historian must reconstru ct thi s past were displayed in a remarkably complete ‘ n n series , which included original Dutch records and other ma uscripts, co V temporary maps and iews, rare early publications and numerous modern

books and pamphlets . It would be unﬁ tting to close this note without an expression of thanks to L the American Numismatic Society, the Pierpont Morgan ibrary, and Bron
