Excerpt from Early History of Suffolk County, L. I Having been invited by the Agricultural Society of Suffolk County to deliver the customary address at their recent Fair, I deemed the occasion not an improper one for an inquiry into the causes which have operated in impeding the development of the resources of the eastern part of Long Island and in giving to its people a distinctive character from the rest of our State. These causes are, in my Opinion, to be found in the politi cal history of two centuries ago the events of that day when Long Island became a part of the royal province of New York have exercised a marked in uence in keeping the people of Suffolk county in a condition of comparative isolation which is far from yet having ended.

Excerpt from An Address Delivered Before the Suffolk County Historical Society: Oct 1st, 1889 The settlements of Plymouth, Salem, Boston and those adjacent thereto would naturally be fixed by the voyagers on or near the ocean they had crossed and a harbor where supplies could be brought from the country they had left. There after, in the selection of sites at Hartford, Windsor, Wethersfield, Say brook, New Haven, Gardiner's Island, Southold, Southampton, East-Hampton, other elements complicated the problem. The interior was a wilderness, the home of the savage and the wild beast. The progress of the traveler was slow, dangerous and the road uncertain and hard to keep. The ocean, bay and river were more easily crossed. Colonies located thereon were more easily supplied, visited, succored and defended. In the wilderness, man to man, the hostile Indian might equal the hostile Englishman. On the ocean, bay or river one small vessel of the latter could beat the canoes of a continent. Not by chance or accident, or without careful thought were the early settlements in this country so located that the settlers could be sustained, supplied, visited, succored, defended. Thus fixed, the forest, the stream, the harbor contributed game and fowl and fish to sustain the pioneer. Thus established, he could export surplus products derived from the waters, the air or the earth. Lion Gardiner, from Saybrook Fort looking over the waters of the Sound, saw with the eye of a soldier, a financier and practical business man the advantageous position of the beautiful isle that to this day bears his name.
