[Applause. ] The Town of Hmitington was first settled in 1653—223 years ago. The settlers were Englishmen. The Pioneers, who formed the settlement, consisted originally of Eleven families, who found their way across the Sound from Sand- wich, Massachusetts, coming through the Connecticut Val- ley. They were soon joined by others of the New Haven Colony.
Three of the settlers made a purchase of land, comprising six square miles, of the Indians, for some trifling' trinkets, for the benefit of the
... whole. The land was then claimed and owned by the Matinnecock tiibe of Indians, who occu- pied the valley near the Harbor and were the Indii. N Pro- prietors c f Huntington. They were few in number rmd weak in spirit, having been greatly reduced by a wr. R with the 11 Peqxiocls of Connecticut, and by a pestilence that had swept over the Island, before the advent of the English.
