throp and the other members of the council never came to dwell in the New Town, and the intention of making it the seat of government was gradually abandoned. The General Court was assembled first at Charlestown in the summer of 1630; then at Boston until May, 1634; then at the New Town until May, 1636; then at Boston, and back again at the New Town from April, 1637, till September, 1638; and always thereafter at Boston, until the stormy days that ushered in the Revolution.
