Among the interesting monuments
I saw was one evidencing the trans

which. not being sufficient, enough
was added to make thirty pounds

And vet. nowadays, there are men
seemingly unable, (or unwilling TO
support a family with quarter sec
ton. But it must be remembered our
ancestors knew what work was and
self-denial as well.
The Puritans began to fortify the
meek" which Boston then occupied
against the Indians, but this was soon
found unnecessary, for the Indians
were not only friendly but seeing the
dire want of the settlers brought sup
plies to them. These acts of kindness
were reciprocated, of which many in
teresting accounts are given. One in

not pretended" a general order is in
existence dated September 18th, 1880,
causing one, Thomas Norton to be
placed in the stocks then sent back to
England. All his goods were seized
and sold to satisfy the Indians for a
canoe which he had stolen from them,
and his house was burned in their
sight as further compensation" for
the wrongs he had done them.
There are many evidences extant OF
the wonderful capacity and character
of Rev. John Eliot. He arrived among
them in 1851 and at once became the
closest of friends with the Indians; he
learned their language in a remark
ably short time, preached the Gospel
in it to their perfect understanding
translated the Bible as well as several
other books for them. The originals OF
these are well preserved in Pilgrim
Hall at Plymouth and were exceeding
ly interesting to me.
Much is also exhibited pertaining tC
Roger Williams, whose then regarded
extreme religious views caused SC
much dissention; also, as to Mrs Ann
Hutchinson, "a woman of ready wit
and bold spirit" as one document de
scribes her, whose views regarding the
Holy Ghost actually disrupted the col
ony and a serious conflict was only
avoided by banishing the woman and
a few others.
TO warn invasion of their religious
freedom, an order of the Council is in
existence suspending special payments
to this effect: THAT farthings shall
not pass for current pay and that mus
ket bullets of full bore shall pass
current for farthing each" And an
other order dated 1910 on account OF
the great financial distress that nc
man should be compelled to satisfy
any lebt, legacy, fine, or make any pay
ment in money, but satisfaction shall
be accepted in corn, cattle, fish OF
other commodities at a rate appraised
by an appointed officer"

Number 10.l

The Puritan was in himself and in
lall that he did a vital and distinct
lpower in founding and building the in
stitutions of New England, supple
menting the work of the Pilgrims, re-
lferred TO in a recent letter, and carry
| ing it forward with that energy and
force so characteristic of the Puritan
lnature-a force acquired during a cen
tury of struggle in England, beginning
early in Elizabeths reign, and exem-
lplified in it's predominance by the
creation of English freedom. Histor-
ians accord to the Puritan the crea-
tion of the English constitution and
House of Commons-that house so
feeble when the Puritans came into
power in it, that it was the cringing
agency of despotism; when they left
their seats it had come to be the
strongest, freest and most respected
| body the world had known-and from
recent events l might add, is still so.
During the Puritan ascendency in
England all who opposed them in their
reformation were brushed aside or
crushed. Stopping at nothing, history
tells us, in their onward sweep, king,
ministers, prelates, all bent their heads
over the block as the axe fell. And
lit was this invincible spirit, uncon-
querable in all that it determined up
on that was brought to our shores by
those Puritan pioneers in the spring
Iof 1924. They came in a small sail
ship of but fifty tons, with scant sup
plies, but stout hearts expecting to sur
viye on what they could catch, kill and
produce At the end of two years, re-
duced to thirty in number, under the
leadership of Roger Conant, from Ply
mouth this handful of men settled at
what is now Salem, Mass, organized
and secured a grant as the colony of
Massachusetts Bay"
Later, in 1923, several men Of means
and religious determination, to the
number of thirty, sailed from England
under the leadership of John Endicott.
This expedition. however, had a great
er interest behind it than mere plant
ing, fishing and trading They pur-
chased the interest of the first settlers.
to what they called the "Massachu-
setts Bay Colony" and for the sole and
declared purpose of providing an asy-
lum for the prosecuted non-conform-
lists" of England. They become at
once the bone and sinew of the colony
1t would seem therefore that we
should attribute the real settlement of
the Puritans in America to religious
considerations entirely, and rejoice
that no country in the world can de-
duce its origin from men guided by
such pure and disinterested motives as
these which inspired these settlers on
our eastern coast.
Freedom of worship being the cause
for which their sacrifices and suffer
ings were endured, among the first
things undertaken to organize a new
and wholly Independent church. 1t
was thus as I understand, that the
and organization was made
of the first Congregational church in
America.
The colony prospered and after a
few years the immigration had in
creased the population to 10000. Gov. |
