January 24, 1784. Independent Gazette, or the New-York Journal Revived (New York, New York)
During the continuance of the late severe frost, when few or no wood boats could come to town, a great number of families were much distressed for the want of fuel, which rose to a most enormous price; and still keeps up extravagantly high, tho' the weather has considerably moderated, and many wood boats have arrived, which sold their loads to great advantage.  The corporation of the city, sent out a great number of sleighs, to bring wood out of the country, for the relief of the inhabitants.

February 14, 1784. Independent Gazette, or the New-York Journal Revived (New York, New York)
TO BE SOLD, At public vendue, on Wednesday the 10th of March next, if not disposed of before at private sale; THAT excellent House and Store, belonging to the estate of the late Theodorus Van Wyck, Esc; and in which he lived. -- Its situation is most delightful, commanding a view of the shipping, and of Long-Island, never to be obstructed, as it faces the Coenties market place. -- It has great conveniences, the lot running through into Duke-street, where the stores are adapted for loading and unloading carts. -- It is an excellent stand for business, more especially for those connected with the North-river and Jersey trades.  To those who know this city, all encomiums are needless; and strangers may receive every necessary information, by applying to Mrs. Helena Van Wyck, at No. 33, corner of William-street, Maiden-lane.
