Not illustrated. 1866 Excerpt: ...as East-Jersey and bounded on its Eastern front by " the main Sea" and " Hudson's "River;" (Release, etc., July 29, 1674; Sir George Carteret's Directions, Instructions, and Orders, July 31, 1674; Quinlipartite Deed, July 1,1676; Release to Sir George Carteret, the younger, September 10, 1680; Dame Elizabeth Carteret and others' Deed to William Perm and others, March 14, 1682; Articles of Surrender of the Proprietors' pretended right of Government, April 15, 1702; etc.) It is a reasonable conclusion, therefore, that in accordance with the general use o" the term at that period, the Lease and Release in question, were intended to convey only the lands which were bounded, on the East, by low water mark on " the main Seas," or Atlantic Ocean, and on " Hudson's River," or, as it is now called, in different localities, on "The Lower Bay," "Raritan Bay," "The Sound," "The Kill van "Col," "The Bay of New York," and "The "North River;" and that the latter, and the islands which are in them, are not, historically considered, nor have they ever been, waters or islands, of either East Jersey or New Jersey.
