Pieter Cock, having conveyed Capt. Post and others to Poulus Hoeck, reports that the Indians had told him: “In two days, then all the prisoners shall be here”; and “Come over, then you shall see it.” Also, that the Indians were not at all satisfied that Capt. Post had not come over at the appointed time, and that the Indians had said: “You Dutch lie so much that you cannot be trusted.” Ady ut supra.
