which stood on the northerly side of the Common in Cambridge, a little west of the road leading to Lexington. The stump of it was dug up not many years since. —Coll. Mass. Hist. Soc., VII. 9. This was probably the tree mentioned in a note to Hutchinson's Hist. Mass., i. 61: At the election in 1637, the party of Mr. Vane, fearing defeat, refused to proceed, until a certain petition had been read. Mr. Winthrop's party protested against delay. And it is said that Mr. Wilson, the minister, in d; which was not a little advanced by the fame and interest of Mr. Hooker, whose worth and abilities had no small influence upon the people of the towns forementioned. Ibid., XVI. 305, 306. The opinion thus expressed by Hubbard, was adopted by Hutchinson, nearly a hundred years later: Mr. Hooker and Mr. Cotton were deservedly in high esteem; some of the principal persons were strongly attached to the one of them, and some to the other. The great influence which Mr. Cotton had in the colony inc
d, and the missing portions are inserted. The Town Records give no intimation of this financial distress. But from other sources we learn that in the year 1640, not only Cambridge but the whole Colony was in imminent danger of bankruptcy. Hutchinson says that, in this year, the importation of settlers now ceased. The motive to transportation to America was over, by the change in the affairs of England.— This sudden stop had a surprising effect upon the price of cattle. They had lost the l places, and no room in time to come; at least, not such good room as now. And now you may best sell. 5. Because Mr. Vane will be upon our skirts. Mr. Vane was elected Governor of Massachusetts in 1636, and was an active associate of Mrs. Hutchinson in the Antinomian party. Chiefly, it would seem, on account of his religious opinions, he was superseded in 1637, and soon returned to England. It was probably feared that he would use his great interest at court in opposition to the Colon

Although this temptation was offered to the peoplIn this struggle, Cambridge men were active participants. It is related by Hutchinson, under date of 1660, that, in the ship which arrived from London the 27th of n Judd's History of Hadley, pp. 214-223. It should be added, that although Hutchinson and others style Whalley and Goffe Colonels, both were actually Major-generala Narrative of the Commissioners from England about New England, published by Hutchinson in his Collection of Papers, Pages 419, 420. it is alleged that Col. WhalWhitehall, especially if Danford, Goggin, and Newell, magistrates, and Cooke, Hutchinson and Fisher, members of their late General Court and great opposers of the honction tremble. Ibid., 535. During these distresses of the colony, says Hutchinson in 1681, there were two parties subsisting in the government, both of them ag

Among the papers in this case, remaining on file, is a deposition, to wit: John Jackson, aged about 25 years, testifieth that, being hired to work upon the two vessels (whereof William Carr was master-builder) in Cambridge, I wrought upon the said vessels about four months in the winter 1670, etc. Sworn April 2, 1672. These were probably the vessels mentioned in the Town Order, Nov. 14, 1670. They were small in size; but it appears from Randolph's narrative, Hutchinson's Coll. Papers, 496. written in 1676, that more than two thirds of all the vessels then owned in Massachusetts ranged from six tons to fifty tons. Feb. 18, 1658. The Town voted, That the Great Swamp lying within the bounds of this town, on the east side of Fresh Pond meadow and Winottomie Brook, shall be divided into particular allotments and propriety.

Winthrop says that in 1640 cattle and all commodities grew very cheap. (II. 7.) And Hutchinson says, the price of a milch cow had kept from 25 to 30l., but fell this year to 5 or 6l. —Hist.

After this at Cambridge, as she [Elizabeth Hooton, called Horton by Hutchinson] returned, she crying Repentance through some part of that town, where no Friend had been before (as she heard of) she January Court, a great change had occurred in the public opinion. A principal reason for such a change is mentioned by Hutchinson: Ordinarily, persons of the lowest rank in life have had the misfortune to be charged with witchcrafts; and although mased her husband to alter his judgment, and to be less active in prosecutions than he had been. Hist. Mass., II. 60. Hutchinson adds: At the Court in January, the grand jury found bills against about fifty for witchcraft, one or two men, the rest
