Synopsis
Excerpt from Historic Homes and Institutions, Vol. 2: And Genealogical and Family History of New York
The discoveries made by the Cabots was the excuse, the de sire of claiming America for future colonies was the true reason, and the existence of a war between England and Holland was the Opportunity for the English conquest Of New Ne-therlaud. The line Of argumentin favor of England was stated most clearly by Governor Cadwallader Colden in his remarks on Smith's History Of New York. The princes of Europe founded their pretentious in America on the first discovery and in taking possession. The-re is no question that the first discova ery of North America was under commission from the King of England and that the first settlement was made by the English with a public declaration by the King's Letters Patent, that he claimed by the discovery and possession from the 39th to the 45th degree of latitude. NO nation in amity with England could settle within those bounds without a breach of amity between them. The Dutch took advantage Of the internal dis orders and the civil war in England to establish themselves in the country claimed by the Crown of England, and the English certainly were in the right to reclaim this country as soon as the public tranquillity permitted them to do it.
