Synopsis
Excerpt from The Thirteen Colonies, Vol. 2 of 2
Island. Four years later, three scouts from Fort vol. II. - I.
Nassau on the Noorde or North River, following streams and Indian trails in search of peltries, came upon what they called the Zuyde or South River, the English name was Delaware,-and descended it with delight until they were captured by some In dians and held for ransom. Then a runner, prob ably taking the trail from what is now Gloucester, crossed the peninsula and carried the news to the Dutch at the mouth of the North River. Captain Cornelius Hendricksen went around by sea after them, exploring both bay and river and finding the region abounding in game, the banks covered with grape-vines, and the natives gentle and possessing fortunes in seal and other Skins, for which Hendrick sen opened a lively trade.
