From Le Fevre, Ralph, History of New Paltz, New York and its old families (from 1678 to 1820), (Albany, New York: Fort Orange Press, Brandon Print. Co., 1909).

p. 81:

Mrs. Edward McEntee's recollections of her early childhood days, as related to us, contain more accounts of the Indians than the recollections of any other old people with whom we have talked. They probably remained longer in the locality about Rosendale Plains than elsewhere in this vicinity. On the east side of the road was an Indian burying ground. One of the neighbors attempted to plow it up, but the red men made him stop. The Indians had bark wigwams scattered throughout the woods. The spot where one of these had stood would be marked long after it had disappeared by a patch of tansy, that being a favorite herb of the red men. She says she saw the Indians many times when a child. They were kind people if treated well. In their wigwams they would lie on the floor with their feet to the fire. Sometimes they would pass the house, the pappooses strapped to their father's backs. The little ones would laugh and call to her. When she as a young woman she lived at Benjamin Van Wegenen's in this village. The Indians would come and shoot with bow and arrow at copper coins at a distance of about fifty yards. If they hit the penny they would keep it. (This was a travelling company). When she was a small child an Indian woman would call at the house and delight to play with her, sometimes lifting her up by one arm, but this her mother forbade for fear of injury. At one time there was a wigwam right by her grandfather's door. When the first Freer located at Bontecoe an Indian set up his wigwam in the clearing. Sometimes he would lie drunk on the door-step. He was not disturbed and after a time went away.
