Very little is to be gleaned from the Probate Records, to assist in determining the true line of descent. I apprehend there may be errors in the foregoing sketch.

a very numerous race of printers. Upon some dissatisfaction with Daye, who was the first to commence printing in New England, Green was appointed to take charge of the press, about 1649. Whether he had previously become acquainted with the business, under the direction of Daye, does not appear. But from this time forward, he devoted himself to this work. Thomas (Hist. Printing) gives a catalogue of books published under Green's superintendence; among which were the Indian New Testament, 1661, the Indian Bible, 1663, and a second edition of the same, six years in press, completed in 1685. Notwithstanding his employment, as sole master-printer in New England, Mr. Green found some leisure for civil and military duties. He was Town Clerk, 1694-1697, and Clerk of the Writs, from 1652 until a late period if not to the end of life. He had a passion for military exercises. Promotion was not as rapid then as now; and a practice then prevailed, and continued, I believe, until the Revol

It is supposed that he came here from Scituate, and returned there after a few years' residence. A person of the same name was in Scituate 1634, and d. there 1661, leaving chil.

that no such distinction could be granted so long as there remained in the prayer-book a form of supplication for King Charles, the Martyr, and of praise and thanksgiving for the wonderful deliverance of these kingdoms from the great rebellion, and all the other miseries and oppressions consequent thereon, under which they had so long groaned. None the less, the demand was insistent, and at last, but only after two full centuries had elapsed and a third was well advanced, was the verdict of 1661 reversed. To-day the bronze effigy of Oliver Cromwell—massive in size, rugged in feature, characteristic in attitude—stands defiantly in the yard of that Westminster Hall, from a pole on top of which, twelve score years ago, the flesh crumbled from his skull. In this dramatic reversal of an accepted verdict—this complete revision of opinions once deemed settled and immutable—there is, I submit, a lesson—an academic lesson. The present occasion is essentially educational. The Phi Beta
