While at Albany, Mr. Moor must have bad opporl unity to loarn sometlilng of 
tlio Mohawk language, from Laurence Claesse, the provincial interpreter, who 
had been a prisoner among the Iroquois, ".and understood their Language suffi- 
ciently," and from the Rev. Bernardus Freeman, minister of the Dutch Reformed 
Church at Schenectady, who "had been employed by the Earl of Bcllamont iu 
the year 1700, to convert the Indians," and "had a good knowledge of the dialect 
of the Mohawks" (Humphrey's Hist. Account, 299, 30-2). When the Rev. William 
Andrews began his mission work among the Five Nations in 1710, Mr. Claesse 
served as his interpreter; and Mr. Freeman (who meanwhile had removed to 
Brooklyn) gave the Society copies of the translations he had made of the English 
liturgy and select portious of Scripture — from which a Mohawk prayer-book was 
printed at New York (Id., 299, 302). This "very worthy Calvinist minister" (as 
Humphreys characterizes him) may have previously given Mr. Moor a copy of — 
or assisted him .to translate — this little manual. Mather would be glad to pro- 
mote its publication, and not disinclined to receive whatever credit, he was enti- 
tled to for the work. And as Moor, while in Boston in 1707, was a fugitive from 
Lord Cornbury's jurisdiction, there was reason enough — the relation of Massachu- 
setts to New York, considered, — for omitting to mention the author's name on the 
title page or in connection with the work.
