Southworth, constant 1614-1685 Colonist; born in Leyden, Holland, in 1614; was taken to Plymouth colony, Mass., in 1623, where his mother went to become the second wife of Gov. William Bradford. In 1633 he was one of the settlers of Duxbury, which he represented in the legislature; was later commissioner of the united colonies, assistant governor of Plymouth, and governor of the Kennebec plantation. It is supposed that he wrote the supplement to Nathaniel Morton's New England's Memorial. He died in Duxbury, Mass., about 1685.

These restrictions, in the case of Massachusetts, were largely motivated by religion; and the early issues of the press were almost entirely religious in character. The first monument of American scholarship and printing ability, for instance, is The Holy Bible . . . translated into the Indian language, Cambridge, 1663. Six years later from the same press appeared what seems to be our first original book not strictly religious in character, Nathaniel Morton's New England's Memorial. Moreover this work announces that it is Printed for H. Usher of Boston. Urian Oakes's Elegie upon the death of the Reverend Mr. Thomas Shepard, See Book I, Chap.

yes with the intention of occupying—and there was a precious broil both there and here over the possession of the place. Colby's Mss. Notes. As early as 1624, we find John Oldham figuring prominently, though not very creditably, at Plymouth. He arrived in the Ann in August, 1623, and was well received; a few months later John Lyford, the minister, arrived and was welcomed with special favor and a more liberal support than had been allowed any one else. In some short time, says Nathaniel Morton, New England's Memorial, p. 73, 74.he fell into acquaintance with Mr. John Oldham, who was a co-partner with him in his after courses; not long after both Oldham and he grew very perverse, and showed a spirit of great malignity, drawing as many into a faction as they could; were they never so vile or prophane, they did nourish and abet them in all their doings, so they would but cleave to them, and speak against the church.
