Parker and Andrew, $4,000 in money
and personal property, and IL acres
of land on the island of Manhattan,
bordering on the Hudson river, but
which cannot be readily located on the
present city lines from the descrip-
ton of the deed. The interior of the
tree was perfectly dry, and with the
exception of a slight covering of mil
dew, the papers are perfectly pre-
served. Squirrels had made the cav.
ity their home, and it was filled to a
depth Of several feet with nuts and
shells.
