About this listen

In which a hapless band of settlers, dispersed by tempest and misfortune, encounter trials of land and sea yet find solace in a humble feast of oysters, marking the dawn of a celebrated local custom. Amidst mirth and gumption, their leader Oloffe Van Kortlandt dreams a wondrous vision involving the venerable St. Nicholas, which inspires a hopeful resolution to build a city, though tempered by a cautious voice among them.
