For thirteen consecutive years from 165 1 to 1664, he was assistant to the general court. He was appointed, with eight others, in 1653, on the council of war, and * part of the powder and shot was to be kept by him.* He was a member also of the famous Hartford Boundary Treaty of 1650.
Willett was one of the pioneers of the carrying trade on the Sound between this city (then New Amsterdam) and the English settlements. In subsequent years, when question of boundary rights arose between the Dutch ...and their English neighbors, he became an efficient negotiator between the two parties — having previously gained a knowledge of the Dutch language from his constant inter- course with them. In 1654, he was sent for, by the Commander-in-Chief of Massachusetts, and ordered to accompany him to Manhattan ; and to ' be an as- sistant unto them in advice and counsel.* From 1661 to 1665 he was an assistant to the Governor. In 1665 he was made Mayor of New York, the first Englishman to hold that office; having received his appointment from Colonel Nichols.
