petitioned for and now desired: and thereof to make due return. Dated at Boston the sixth day of January in the third year of his Majesty's reign, annoque Domini, 1687. By order, &c., J. West, D. Secy. What was the result of this process does not appear on record; for the records of the Council during the administration of Andrcing the year, as we now do with the first day of January, is certain, because (1) according to the present style, Wednesday was not the eleventh day of January in 1687, but it was in 1688; and (2) King Charles II., died Feb. 6, 1684-5, and consequently the third year of the reign of James II. did not commence until Feb. 6, 1686-7, and the only January in that third year was in 1687-8, that is, in 1688, by the present style of reckoning. A few matters of less public nature, belonging to this period, should not be entirely overlooked. I quote from the Town Records. Dec. 14, 1657.

autographs which I have seen, it was uniformly so written by himself; and it was written in the same form by his two sons, Samuel (H. C. 1681), and Jonathan (H. C. 1687). It may be added, if this be really the grave of Mitchell, the remains of Shepard probably rest near it, because the widow of these two pastors, as well as their were in like manner granted to Mr. Chauncy, and thirty pounds to Mrs. Mitchell. Similar gratuities were granted to Mrs. Mitchell, from year to year, as late as 1687. In the mean time the town and church were not idle or inactive. Thus it is recorded, Feb. 8, 1668-9.
