CORRESPONDING MEMBER OF THE MASSACHUSETTS HISTORICAL SOCIETY AND OF THE COLONIAL SOCIETY OF MASSACHUSETTS WITH MAPS AND FA CI ^^eStF^^ NORMAL SCHOOL VOLUME I CHARLES SCRIBNER'S SONS NEW YORK 1908 \^ c-4 COPYRIGHT, 1908, BY CHARLES SCRIBNER'S SONS Published June, 1908 \J . 1 NOTE While in this edition of Winthrop's Journal we have followed, as Dr. Hosmer explains in his Introduction, the text prepared by Savage, it has been thought wise to add devices which will make the dates easier for the reader to follow; but these have, it is hoped, been given such a form that the reader will have no difficulty in distinguishing added words or figures from those belonging to the original text. Winthrop makes no division into chapters. In this edition the text has, for the reader's convenience, been broken by headings repre- senting the years. These, however, in accordance with modern usage, have been set at the beginning of January, not at the date with which Winthrop began his year, the first of March. The dates set in the inner margins of the headlines to our pages have been arranged on the same plan. Early in 1635 Winthrop abandons in his text the Roman names of the months, substituting, in accordance with Puritan sentiment, a system of numbering, beginning with March as the first month. In this edition the more- familiar names of the months are inserted in italics. With respect to the first of the illustrations, it may be mentioned that the first volume of the original manuscript has pages of about 7| by 5^ inches, so that the facsimile here presented is somewhat reduced. The second facsimile exhibits the famous patent of 1629 to the Massachusetts Company, the conveyance of which to New England was of so momentous consequences to the colony. Though annulled in 1684, the original patent has remained in Massachusetts, and is now exhibited in the office of the Secretary of State, to whom we are indebted for permission to reproduce it. The next illustration, reproducing the map given in William Wood's book called New England's Prospect, bears date of 1634, the year in which that book was published. Wood was an intelligent traveller, whose book is of much value. It was reproduced by the Prince Society in 1634, edited by Dr. Charles Deane. Wood left New England August 15, 1633, and the map no doubt represents the state of settlement at the time of his departure. It is closely related to the map reproduced in Winsor's \'^0\^ vi NOTE Narrative and Critical History of America, III. 381, which, by whom- soever draughted, bears a marginal key in the handwriting of Gov- ernor Winthrop. Perhaps Wood depended in part on this map, now in the British Museum; perhaps both were based in greater or less degree on the same original survey. Of the two maps. Wood's has been selected for reproduction in this volume, because it is much more easily read. It is here presented in the size of the original. For the opportunity to photograph it, and also the title-page of the Short Story, we are indebted to Mr. Wilberforce Eames of the Lenox Library; for similar permission in the case of the precious original manuscript of Winthrop, to Dr. Samuel A. Green, Librarian of the Massachusetts Historical Society. J. F. J.

  • Thomas Mayhew
    “GOVERNOR FOR LIFE” THOMAS MAYHEW OF NANTUCKET AND MARTHA’S VINEYARD 1593 Thomas Mayhew was born. He would grow up in a town called Tisbury in Wiltshire, a tiny place between London and Bristol to the west. His father would die when he was 21 and he would become a merchant in the town in which he likely had been apprenticed, Southampton, due south, one of the great seaport towns of England. One of the London merchants who was very active in the colonization of New England was Matthew Cradock, and somehow Mayhew would become acquainted with Cradock and, after having been in business for himself for about 10 years, accept an offer in 1631 to become Cradock’s agent in the colonies. NANTUCKET ISLAND MARTHA’S VINEYARD HDT WHAT? INDEX GOVERNOR THOMAS MAYHEW THOMAS MAYHEW 1630 In England, William Coddington was chosen as an Assistant of the company (Assistant Judge of Court of Colony of Massachusetts Bay) before his embarkation with John Winthrop. He had lived at Boston in County Lincoln, where the record of St. Botolph’s church shows that he and his wife Mary Moseley Coddington, daughter of Richard Moseley of Ouseden, in County Suffolk had Michael Coddington, baptized on March 8, 1627, who died in two weeks, and Samuel Coddington, born on April 17, 1628, buried on August 21, 1629. The Winthrop fleet that brought “the Great Emigration” of this year comprised 11 vessels: • Arbella (the flagship) •Ambrose • William and Francis • Talbot • Hopewell • Jewel • Whale •Charles • Success • Mayflower •Trial Altogether the fleet brought about 700 colonists — here is an attempt at reconstructing a passenger list.

To me, and I doubt not to many of my generation, it was a great privilege to have known, for so long a period, my grandfather, William Putnam Endicott; my grandmother, Mrs. George Peabody; and my great-aunts, Mrs. Augustus Perry and Mrs. Francis Peabody. As I think of them I seem to see in my mind's eye people of dignity of character; of general cultivation; of extreme reticence; and ofgreat personal charm and beauty. They lived in a small community and all their interests were of necessity more or less centered around their homes. I am sure they represented what was best in the life of New England and set high ideals for those among whom they lived.

    THE Pennsylvania Magazine OF HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY Governor John Blackwell: His Life in England and Ireland OHN BLACKWELL is best known to American readers as an early governor of Pennsylvania, the most recent account of his J governorship having been published in this Magazine in 1950. Little, however, has been written about his services to the Common- wealth government, first as one of Oliver Cromwell's trusted cavalry officers and, subsequently, as his Treasurer at War, a position of considerable importance and responsibility.1 John Blackwell was born in 1624,2 the eldest son of John Black- well, Sr., who exercised considerable influence on his son's upbringing and activities.

Itis designed for those who esteemed and appreciated one who was never happier than when engaged in some labor of love for his friends or for the unfortunate. Charles Edward Wiggin was born No­ vember 29, 1813, in a part of Newmarket, New Hampshire, then known as the New Fields, which has since been separated into a town called South Newmarket. He came to Boston August 31, 1828, when he was nearly fifteen years old.
