4 The New Netherlands in Asia were treated as if they were in America (see the many references
in the Index under the entry "New Netherlands"). The island of S1. Christopher in the West Indies
is said to be "near Madagascar," ([Propaganda] to Malachias O'Queely, [Rome], 12 May 1640,
Lettere 22), and the marginal note of an 1784 letter dealing with the American convert Thayer
is again "Madagascar" (Giuseppe Maria Doria Pamphili to Leonardo Antonelli, Paris, 15 Nov.
1784, £. 317).
