From this time a constant struggle for chartered rights was maintained for many years, resulting in the forcible abrogation of the old charter. In 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 July there came passengers Col. Whaley and Col. Goffe, two of the late King's judges. . . . . They did not attempt to conceal their persons or characters when they arrived at Boston, but immediately went to the governor, Mr. Endicot, who received them very courteously. They were visited by the principal persons of the town, and among others they take notice of Col. Crown's coming to see them. He was a noted royalist. Although they di

the number graduated. Caleb Cheeshahteaumuck, 1665, died 1666. By the records of the Commissioners of the United Colonies, it appears that he was paid £ 6 9 4, in 1658, for teaching the Indians at Cambridge and the charge of an Indian that died in his sickness and funeral; also £ 22, in 1659, for dieting John Stanton for some time not reckoned formerly, and for his extraordinary pains in teaching the Indian scholars and Mr. Mahews son about two years. Similar payments were made to him in 1660 and 1661. In their letter to the corporation in England, dated Sept. 7, 1659, the Commissioners say, there are five Indian youthes att Cambridge in the lattin schoole, whose dilligence and profisiency in theire studdies doth much encurrage us to hope that God is fiting them and preparing them for good instruments in this great and desirable worke; wee have good testimony from those that are prudent and pious, that they are dilligent in theire studdies and civell in theire carriage; and from

Mr. Eliot, and others whom God raised up, both English and Indians, preached the word with success to other tribes. In addition to his otions called him for England for two or three years, one Major Humphrey Atherton was appointed to conduct this affair, which he did about three years.

the state of New England from the beginning of that Plantation to this present year, 1689, p. 9. But, although the private soldiers were released from further service, on attaining three score years, their officers sometimes voluntarily served until a much later period of life. A notable example of this long-continued devotion to official service was exhibited by Captain Samuel Green, the veteran printer, who was sergeant in the expedition against Gorton, as before stated, in 1643, ensign in 1660, and on the 27th of June, 1689, became a captain. Of him it was stated, in an obituary notice of his son Bartholomew, that this Captain Green was a commission officer of the military company at Cambridge, who chose him for above sixty years together; and he died there, Jan. 1, 1701-2, ae. 87, highly esteemed and beloved both for piety and a martial genius.
