It was so common to refuse even the highest offices, that penalty for refusing became necessary, and our records are full of such notices as the following:-- 1728: Mr. Peter Tufts, refusing to take the office of Constable, paid in his money, as the law directs, to the town-treasury. At a later period (1751), the town voted, that if any one refused to take the office to which he had been elected, he should pay into the treasury £ 1. 6s. 8d., lawful money. In 1632, the people of Plymouth enact, that whoever refuses the office of Governor shall pay £ 20, unless he was chose two years going. Feb. 9, 1729: The inhabitants of Medford took a deep interest in supporting the rights secured by the Charter; and readily paid their share in supporting agents. On this day they voted to carry round a sub

May 18, 1774: Voted that Mr. Turell should lave three hundred pounds (old tenor) as annual salary, in order to make his salary now equal to what it was when he settled among us. May 15, 1749: Mr. Turell's salary was raised to five hundred pounds (old tenor). These votes reveal the perilous changes in the value of money, which then so perplexed and distressed the colonies.

It was the custom of those days to introduce domestic joys and sorrows into the pulpit.
