similar IN purport to that OF Df. BUR
rage. ne sought to prove his pei1ef that
thet ls' no great antiquity IN bhe place
thaG is no greater than the other carry

quarter of the l7th century comprises the

definitely known are: WeJmouth's ship

SHIPS OF Francis Popham, Capt. John

OF John Prince in 1921, trading and flsh,

Those early voyages Mr.. Thayer re-
CARDS as evidence that few fishermen had
at that time visited the Maine coast. 1t
isn't known when the first company
tarrled ON shore over winter. Capt,
Dermer, in 1919, was at Monhegan, and
wished to leave provision tcr another
ship, but could leave no men TO guard
them. This he regards as proof that
there was no permanent settlement That
year.
All this is OF course in direct op posi-
tion to the views of Hon. r. K. Sewall.

Jamestown. now buried in the eartn, was
a Spanish settlement, long before Ply
