2. On the other hand, Mr M. R. Harrington,

in a personal communication to the author, says of the name Werpoes or Worpus: "There seems to be nothing in recorded Delaware to help us here, but the Natick word waapu, 'raised up,' with the diminutive -s added, would seem to indicate 'a slight elevation.' This would accord with the Kolch hill, the most conspicuous elevation of the neighborhood."

4. Information by Mr M. R. Harrington, who

says: "Taking into account the interchangeability of the letters / and r, the Delaware roots of these names, both of which are used, might be lexau-taney-k, 'at the sandy town,' or lexau-tuk, 'sandy river.' "

5. Minetta or M^netta. This brook was

not sufficiently distinctive to deserve a title derived from the Manitto, the Great Spirit, nor could it have had any connection with menatey, an island. It is most probable that it is a corruption of the prosaic menantachk indicating the "wooded swamp" through which the upper part of the brook meandered. -- M. R. Harrington.

6. Aspetong; Ashpetong. An elevation,

scarcely sufficiently conspicuous to deserve the name of a hill, seems to be indicated by the Delaware as pi, "lifted up," and the locative-o»g, "an elevated place," or as we should say, "rising ground." -- Information by M. R. Harrington.
