    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[A set of copies of an article titled &quot;An Old Deed to Chicopee,&quot; with an image of the set of &quot;signatures attached to old Chicopee deed.&quot; The three pages appear to be copies of the same article in different configurations. The article begins with a description of the purported deed between William Pynchon, Wenepawin, Misquis, Secousk, Jancompowin, and Nippumsuit for the land that would become Chicopee; and proceeds to reproduce the language of the deed in its entirety. It is notable that the deed reasserted the fishing rights of the Indigenous people &quot;at the usuall wares [weirs] that now are in use.&quot; The article is not dated; the deed it reproduces is from 1641.]]></dcterms:description>
