Cooper, a priest for this and Yonkers church." On this occasion, William Crawford was requested to render an account of the rent due the church from him, for the glebe.

In 1792, we find the town defining the boundaries necessary for the church, for a yard and burial ground ; accommodating the remainder, of what was called the Church Green, (the site of the old church, and burial place of one of its ministers) to public occasions, and appointing trustees to carry the same into execution, notwithstanding the church had been in possession exclusively for nearly one hundred years.

" At a town meeting held in Eastchester, 3d of April, 1792, it was agreed as follows: -- and it is also agreed by vote at this town meeting, that there shall be three trustees chosen, who shall have power, and are hereby authorized to affix and ascertain, in conjunction with the trustees of the Episcopal Church of the town of Eastchester, the quantity and boundaries of the land necessary for said church and burying ground ; and such boundaries when so fixed and determined on shall be declared in a certificate by the said trustees of the town, which is now to be chosen, under their hands and seals, and delivered to the Trustees of said Church, which certificate shall forever hereafter operate as a bar to any claim of this town to the lands within the said described boundaries. Power was also given to the trustees to lease out any of the public lands and tenements to the best advantage. The meeting proceeded to uonuuate and choose three men as trustees of said town, viz : Nehemiah Marshall, Benjamin Morgan, and James Morgan.
