    Massachusetts Colony, Henry David Thoreau, and Walden Pond RaDon Andersen As detailed in the book Mayflower by Nathan Philbrick, the first permanent settlers in the Massachusetts area were the Pilgrims, who arrived in Plymouth in 1620, after a long, exhausting journey. Led by Captain Miles Standish and William Bradford, among others, the Pilgrims suffered huge losses during their first winter, with only 44 of 102 surviving. “For we must Consider that we shall A few years after the Pilgrims arrived, the be as a City upon a Hill, the eyes of all Massachusetts Bay Colony was chartered, and settled people are upon us…” John Winthrop by Puritans. Three hundred families arrived in 1630, and John Winthrop was named governor of the colony. Declaring that the colony would be “a city upon a hill”, Winthrop and his followers settled in the Massachusetts area, with Boston as their center. These colonists also suffered losses during their first year, as over 200 settlers died from disease, hunger, and the effects of harsh weather. Colonists struggled to find food. Many of their shelters were not built to withstand the unexpected conditions in winter. Interactions with American Indian tribes were unpredictable and dangerous. In spite of these initial challenges, the colony eventually thrived and became a successful economic center. The Massachusetts Colony was known for its emphasis on education. In 1647, the Old Deluder Act required that any township with 50 households must provide a teacher to instruct students to read and write. New College, later named Harvard University, was established in 1636. According to historian Perry Miller, as quoted in Founding Faith, “the government of Massachusetts…was a dictatorship, and never pretended to be anything else” (Waldman).
