An interesting bit of transportation history of the City of New York well remembered by many old New Yorkers may be told in connection with the fine line of steamboats which plyed the East River from Harlem to Peck's Slip. The record of these "Sylvan" boats is definitely preserved in the five splendid water-color paint ings which have recently become the property of The New York Historical Society and are reproduced in this issue of the Bulletin, while the boats themselves have all been destroyed with the pos sible exception of one, as this article will hereafter relate. At the time that these steamboats were built traveling from the lower end of Manhattan Island to Harlem, was accomplished by the stages and later the horse cars and it is variously recorded that a trip from City Hall to Harlem Bridge by the horse car took from one hour and a half to two hours for the journey. -

I90I / j&reface. 120285S For her own information and pleasure, the com- piler of these pages, during her visits to Quebec, be- came interested in tracing the ancestry of her fam- ily through her great-grandmother on the maternal side, who was connected by birth with many of the earliest and most prominent families of Canada.

Chapter V: the FEDERAL PERIOD
CHAPTERV THE FEDERAL PERIOD: 1783-1861 AFTER THE REVOLUTION, Staten Island again became a peaceful community, largely dependent upon farming and fishing. There was little money and the small landowners made and grew practically everything they needed. Many of the wealthy British sympathizers had gone to Cana- da, and their large estates were subdivided. The Islanders were free to develop village life which had been discouraged by the British during the War. The PosteRevolutionary Period on Staten Island was one of steady growth, although the rate was slow compared to that of Manhattan and Brooklyn. The following census figures reflect the population changes (28): 1783.................... 3,500 1830.................... 7,082 1800.................... 4,564 1840.................... 10,965 1810.................... 5,347 1850.................... 15,061 1820.................... 6,135 1860.................... 25,492 RESTORATION OF OFFICIAL BUILDINGS Concern for restoring what had been destroyed and growth in population necessitated the erection of new public buildings in the County Seat of Richmondtown after the Revolution (28). A large inn built in 1820 near the intersection of Richmond Road and Arthur Kill Road (Richmond County Hall) helped accommodate the population growth and afforded facilities for stage coach travelers. A new courthouse was completed in Richmondtown by 1794 and stood until 1944 when it was destroyed by fire. Foundation stones are still in evidence at Arthur Kill Road near the Treasure House. Until a second County Courthouse could be built, the home of Dr. Thomas Frost was used for court purposes. In the Richmondtown Restoration, the Boehm House* in Great Kills will be moved next to the Voorlezer’s House to rep- resent Dr. -

Potter Bishop of New-York 1 ADDRESS OF WELCOME David B. Hill Governor of the State of New-York The State of New-York welcomes to-day the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches of the National Government, and the representatives of forty-two States; as a century ago she welcomed Washington, his Cabinet, and the Congress of the old Thirteen, which in this city added the bill of rights to the National Constitution. May our fidelity to that Constitution so guard the rights of both the States and the people to civil and religious freedom, and to republican government based on universal education, that the centuries as they pass may swell our acclaim, God Save the American Republic!

What justice they could look for, Heaven knows; they were shut out from all corporations and offices and every privilege belonging to freemen.... in short, they were humbled below the beasts of the field.' William Sampson These words were written by the banished human rights advocate William Sampson just a few years before he won the first ever constitutional triumph for religious freedom and equality. In his famous test case of People v. Philips,2 Sampson established the priest-penitent evidentiary privilege for the thousands of exotic Irish Catholic refugees who had recently landed in New York City. Philips was decided by Mayor De Witt Clinton in New York City's Court of General Sessions in June 1813. A pioneering court reporter and radical cause lawyer, the Irish Protestant Sampson ideologically secured their shared courtroom victory with his hefty report of Philips, * Associate Professor, University of Washington School of Law. -
