From Lo-Lathrop Account: 2 CONT 2 CONT He first was know as curate of a parish church in Egerton 2 CONC , County of Kent. Ultimately unable to sanctify the view o 2 CONC f the traditional church of England, he renounced his order 2 CONC s, and presided first over an illegal gathering of dissente 2 CONC rs like himself for eight years, escaping vengeance. 2 CONT 2 CONT In 1632, however, he and his small band of followers whos 2 CONC e sanctuary was that of room in a house of a brewers clerk 2 CONC , were raided by a bishop's man , Tomlinson, and his band 2 CONC , who had tracked them to their worshipping place. The dat 2 CONC e was April 22, 1632, and 42 of their number (18 escaping 2 CONC ) were fettered and sent to Clink Prison, Newgate. His foll 2 CONC owers apparently lingered here for months and released. 2 CONT 2 CONT He, being considered too dangerous to the church remained i 2 CONC n Prison. While he languished in prison, his wife died (h 2 CONC e being briefly permitted to "commend her to God", and lef 2 CONC t behind numerous children who appealed to the Bishop at La 2 CONC mbeth for his release. The Bishop granted him liberty, whic 2 CONC h appears to be limited, perhaps something akin to our cont 2 CONC emporary "parole." Suffice it to say, he, with reasonable h 2 CONC aste repaired to New England. He arrived on the Ship Griffi 2 CONC n, together with others of his "flock" Sept, 1634. 2 CONT 2 CONT He received warm welcome, but later removed to Barnstable 2 CONC , due to differences with some of his people over baptism 2 CONC , of which he disapproved. He remained here for 14 years. H 2 CONC e required no creeds, nor confessions of faith, believed th 2 CONC at man is not responsible to fellow man in matters of fait 2 CONC h and conscience, tolerated differences of opinion, and was 2 CONC , apparently, in all, an independent thinker who held opini 2 CONC ons in advance of his times. 2 CONT 2 CONT After a dedicated, and apparently illustrious ministry, h 2 CONC e died Barnstable, Nov 8. 1653. 2 CONT 2 CONT Parents: Thomas LATHROP and Mary SALTE . 2 CONT 2 CONT 2 CONT Jonathan LATHROP(845) was born about 11 Mar 1 2 CONC 723 in Bridgewater or Easton, MA.(1945) Parent 2 CONC s: Mark LATHR0P and Hannah ALDEN . 2 CONT He was married to Susanna JOHNSON in 1747.(1946 2 CONC ) 2 CONT 2 CONT 1. Rev. John LATHROP 2 CONT OCCU: Minister 2 CONT BAPM: 2 CONT DATE 20 DEC 1584 2 CONT PLAC Etton, Yorkshire, England 2 CONT Ancestor of Pres.

Huntington, A Genealogical Memoir of the Lo-Lathro 2 CONC p Family in Thi Country Embracing…" (Ridgefield, Conn., 188 2 CONC 4), is a well presented family history, especially for Joh 2 CONC n Lothrop's life in England and America. Lothrop's family c 2 CONC an be 2 CONT traced back a number of generations in England, and his ow 2 CONC n baptism is recorded at Etton, Yorkshire, 20 December 1584 2 CONC . He graduated from Cambridge University with a B.A. in 160 2 CONC 5, and M.A. in 1609. He became curate of the church at Eger 2 CONC ton, County Kent 2 CONT from ca. 1611 to 1623. In 1623 he was called to succeed Rev 2 CONC . Henry Jacob (who had left for Virginia) at the First Inde 2 CONC pendent Church in Southwark, Surrey. Independent worship be 2 CONC ing illegal, Lothrop's services were conducted in secret. I 2 CONC n 1632 he was 2 CONT imprisoned, but released on bail in 1634. Nathaniel Morto 2 CONC n (New Englands Memoriall, p. 140-41) relates some of his b 2 CONC ackground, including the death of hi first wife in England 2 CONC . Huntington, p. 25, quotes from Governor Winthrop's Journa 2 CONC l under date of 18 2 CONT September 1634 "The Griffin and another ship now arriving w 2 CONC ith about 200 passengers. Mr. Lathrop and Mr. Sims, two god 2 CONC ly ministers coming in the same ship." That same year Lothr 2 CONC op went to Scituate, where he formed the first churc there 2 CONC , and then in 2 CONT 1639 the church divided and Lothrop went with the group tha 2 CONC t settled at Barnstable, becoming minister there, too. Hi 2 CONC s records of some activities and events at Scituate and Bar 2 CONC nstable are in NEHGR 9:279-87, 10:37-43; also see text. Tw 2 CONC o of his letters of 2 CONT 1638 to Governor Prence mention in rather vague terms the f 2 CONC orthcoming move from Scituate (Huntington, p. 28-32). One o 2 CONC f the letters is also signed by Anthony Aniball, _____ (n 2 CONC o doubt Henry) Cobb, and _____ (no doubt Isaac) Robinson "I 2 CONC n behalf of the 2 CONT church." He became a freeman on 7 June 1637 (PCR 1:60). 2 CONT "He married (1) Hannah House (sister of Samuel House, q.v. 2 CONC ) and (2) Ann _____, who has variously been thought to b 2 CONC e a Hammond or a Dimmock; since his son Barnabas was bor 2 CONC n 6 June 1636, he married his [p.321] second wife probabl 2 CONC y in 1635 (see 2 CONT Torrey, and Wakefield, Marriages). His will (MD 11:42) date 2 CONC d 10 August 1653, inventory 8 December 1653, names his son 2 CONC s Thomas, John (in England), and Benjamin and daughters Jan 2 CONC e and Deborah; "to the rest of my Children both mine and m 2 CONC y wives my will is 2 CONT that every of them shall have a Cow." His children were t 2 CONC o have a choice of one of his books each, and the rest wer 2 CONC e to be sold, with the money divided among them. Some of hi 2 CONC s lands were to be sold, with the money to be divided amon 2 CONC g the children "that 2 CONT have the least portions." The wording of the will is unfort 2 CONC unate, for it leaves open the question as to how many child 2 CONC ren survived him. There is a possibility he may have been t 2 CONC he father of Elizabeth, the unwanted wife of John Williams 2 CONC , q.v. PCR 4:107 2 CONT shows that on 3 October 1665 "Mr. Barnabas Laythorpe hath s 2 CONC een cause, in the behalfe of his sister [Elizabeth Williams 2 CONC ] and those related to her, to revive the former complain 2 CONC t [against John Williams]." For reasons too lengthy to giv 2 CONC e in detail, 2 CONT Barnabas Laythorpe could only be the son of Rev. John Lothr 2 CONC op, and sister in this context could only mean blood siste 2 CONC r or sister-in-law. Since Barnabas's wife was Susanna Clark 2 CONC , daughter of Thomas Clark, q.v., and there was no Elizabet 2 CONC h in the Thomas 2 CONT Clark family, the term probably meant blood sister.

JOHN, THE PIONEER. 2 CONT JOHN LOTHROPP, for this is the form in which he wrote his n 2 CONC ame, deserves, in this work, a much more complete biograph 2 CONC y than our sources of information will furnish. Of printe 2 CONC d materials towards such a biography, we have but very few 2 CONC , and these very meager. Neal's "History of the Puritans" 2 CONC ; Gov. Winthrop's "Journal"; Morton's "New England Memorial 2 CONC "; a "Biographical Sketch" written by Rev. John Lathrop, D. 2 CONC D., of Boston, for his kinsman of the Lathrop blood, Rev. A 2 CONC biel Holmes, D.D., of Charlestown; and that brief but jus 2 CONC t sketch in Dr. Sprague's "Annals of the American Pulpit, 2 CONC " and Mr. Otis' quite exhaustive collections printed in th 2 CONC e Yarmouth paper, will exhaust the list. A few gleanings fr 2 CONC om English records, before his immigration to America, an 2 CONC d a few from American records after that date, must complet 2 CONC e the story as we are now able to tell it. 2 CONT Baptized, as our English record shows, in Etton, Yorkshire 2 CONC , Dec. 20, 1584, he was educated, not in Oxford as Dr. Lath 2 CONC rop's sketch supposes, but in Queen's College, Cambridge, w 2 CONC here he was matriculated in 1601, graduated B.A. in 1605, a 2 CONC nd M.A. in 1609. 2 CONT Authentic records next locate him in Egerton, 48 miles sout 2 CONC heast from London, in the Lower Half hundred of Calehill, L 2 CONC athe of Seray, County of Kent, as curate of the parish chur 2 CONC ch there. To this living he was admitted about 1611 by th 2 CONC e Dean and Chapter of St. Paul. Our baptismal records, alre 2 CONC ady given. show ??at he was there in the fall of 1614, an 2 CONC d last report his family there in the fall of 1619. It wa 2 CONC s probably his first and only parish charge as a minister o 2 CONC f the English Church. That he was an acceptable minister w 2 CONC e have no reason to doubt. The church in which he otliciate 2 CONC d was an ancient structure, standing on the summit of a rou 2 CONC nded bill, and could be seen from a great distance. The sit 2 CONC e was very beautiful; the church itself, dedicated to St. J 2 CONC ames, consisted of two aisles and a chancel. At the west en 2 CONC d rose its square tower with a beacon turret, altogether co 2 CONC nstituting a feature which gives a charn to so many a pleas 2 CONC ant English landscape. 2 CONT Here Mr. Lothropp labored faithfully as long as his judgmen 2 CONC t could approve the ritual and government of the Church. Bu 2 CONC t when he could no longer do this, we find him conscientiou 2 CONC sly renouncing his orders and asserting the right of stil 2 CONC l fulfilling a ministry to which his heart and his conscien 2 CONC ce had called him. 2 CONT Accordingly, in 1623 his decision is made. He bids adieu t 2 CONC o the church of his youth, and with no misgvings, now in th 2 CONC e fullness of his early manhood, subscribes with a firm han 2 CONC d to the doctrines, and espouses with a courageous heart th 2 CONC e cause of the Independents. Henceforth his lot is with con 2 CONC venticle men in his mother land, and with the exiled founde 2 CONC rs of a great nation in a new world. We will not stop to ju 2 CONC stify his renunciation, nor his espousal. 2 CONT ?? the story we are to tell fails of doing this, any othe 2 CONC r proof we could ??mmon would 2 CONT The date of his leaving Egerton is 1623, and the next yea 2 CONC r he is called to succeed the Rev. Henry Jacob, an independ 2 CONC ent minister who, having been for eight years the pastor o 2 CONC f the First Independent Church in London, resigned his plac 2 CONC e to remove to Virginia. This church, at that date, was sit 2 CONC uated on Union St., Southwark, and from the burial lot atta 2 CONC ched to it, was still later known as the Deadman's Place. N 2 CONC ot a vestige now remains above ground to show the locality 2 CONC . One single stone, still buried, or which certainly was ly 2 CONC ing buried July 20, 1872, when I visited the spot, beneat 2 CONC h the rubbish and earth in the rear yard of (???) Barcla 2 CONC y & Perkins great brewery will yet testify for that old hou 2 CONC se. At that date the congregation of dissenters to which h 2 CONC e ministered had no place of public worship, their worshi 2 CONC p itself being illegal. Only such as could meet the obloqu 2 CONC y and risk the danger of worshiping God in violation of hum 2 CONC an statute, were likely to be found in that secret gatherin 2 CONC g. Yet in goodly numbers, in such places in Southwark as th 2 CONC ey could stealthily occupy, they held together and were com 2 CONC forted and instructed by the minister of their choice. Fo 2 CONC r not less than eight years they so worshiped. No threats o 2 CONC f vengeance deterred, and no vigilance of officious ministe 2 CONC rs of the violated law detected them. More watchful grew th 2 CONC e minions of Land. Keen-scented Church hounds traversed al 2 CONC l the narrow ways of the city whose most secret nooks coul 2 CONC d by any possibility admit even a small company of the outl 2 CONC aws. One of the wiliest of these pursuivants of the bishop 2 CONC , Tomlinson by name, tracked Mr. Lothropp and his follower 2 CONC s to their retreat. They had met for worship as had been th 2 CONC eir wont, little thinking that it would be their last gathe 2 CONC ring with their beloved minister. How far they had gone i 2 CONC n their service we shall probably never know. What words o 2 CONC f cheer they had spoken or heard we may not repeat. Their p 2 CONC rivate sanctuary, a room in the house of Mr. Humphrey Barne 2 CONC t, a brewer's clerk in Black Friars, is suddenly invaded. T 2 CONC omlinson and his rufflan band, with a show of power above t 2 CONC heir resistance, sieze forty-two of their number, allowin 2 CONC g only eighteen of them to eseape, and make that 22d day o 2 CONC f April, 1632, forever memorable to those suffering Christi 2 CONC ans, by handing them over in fetters to the executioners o 2 CONC f a law which was made for godly men to break. In the old C 2 CONC link prison, in Newgate, and in the Gatehouse, all made fo 2 CONC r felons, these men, "of whom the world was not worthy," li 2 CONC ngered for months. In the spring of 1634, all but Mr. Lothr 2 CONC opp were released on ball. He, their leader, the chief offe 2 CONC nder, was deemed too dangerous to be set at liberty. Like t 2 CONC he gifted Hooker, it was felt that his words and his exampl 2 CONC e had "already more impeached the peace of our Church," tha 2 CONC n the church could bear. "His genius will still haunte al 2 CONC l the pulpits in ye country, when any of his scolers may b 2 CONC e admitted to preach." 2 CONT And so his prison doors swung to again and seemed to leav 2 CONC e him no hope of release or escape. 2 CONT During these months a fatal sickness was preying upon his w 2 CONC ife, and bringing her fast toward her end. The "New England 2 CONC 's Memorial," by Nathaniel Morton, published in 1669, and t 2 CONC hen near enough the date of the incidents given, to be a cr 2 CONC edible witness, gives us these touching incidents of that i 2 CONC mprisonment: "His wife fell sick, of which sickness she die 2 CONC d. He procured liberty of the bishop to visit his wife befo 2 CONC re her death, and commended her to God by prayer, who soo 2 CONC n gave up the ghost. At his return to prison, his poor chil 2 CONC dren, being many, repaired to the bishop at Lambeth, and ma 2 CONC de known unto him their miserable condition, by reason of t 2 CONC heir good father's being continued in close durance, who co 2 CONC mmiserated their condition so far as to grant him liberty 2 CONC , who soon after came over into New England." 2 CONT The State Papers in the New Record Office, Fetter Lane, Lon 2 CONC don, have preserved some of the Star Chamber records of tho 2 CONC se days during which Mr. Lothropp was thus imprisoned. Th 2 CONC e following copies from these records will tell their own s 2 CONC tory: 2 CONT "June 12, 1634. John Lathrop of Lambeth Marsh. Bond to be c 2 CONC ertified, and he attached if he appear not on next court da 2 CONC y. 2 CONT "June 19. Bond ordered to be certified and to be attached f 2 CONC or non-appearance. 2 CONT "Oct. 9. John Lathrop and Samuel Eaton, to be attached fo 2 CONC r non-appearance. 2 CONT "1634-5, Feb. 19. John Lathrop and Sam. Eaton for contemp 2 CONC t in not appearing to answer touching their keeping convent 2 CONC ieles, their bonds ordered to be certified and they attache 2 CONC d and committed. 2 CONT "1634, Apr. 24. John Lathrop enlarged on bond to appear i 2 CONC n Trinity term, and not to be present at any private conven 2 CONC ticles." 2 CONT This last record was probably the order of the court whic 2 CONC h opened the way for the escape of Mr. Lathrop to America 2 CONC . At any rate the year had not ended before the following r 2 CONC ecord showed him to be a freeman in a land in which he rejo 2 CONC iced to ??d 2 CONT A Church without a bishop 2 CONT And 2 CONT a State without a king. 2 CONT The record is found on page 71 of Gov. Winthrop's Journal 2 CONC , under date of Sept. 18, 1634: "The Griffin and another sh 2 CONC ip now arriving with about 200 passengers. Mr. Lathrop an 2 CONC d Mr. Sims, two godly ministers coming in the same ship." 2 CONT The next page of the journal has this item, which shows ho 2 CONC w tender the conscience of Mr. Lothropp was on a question o 2 CONC f Christian propriety. 2 CONT "Mr. Lathrop had been pastor of a private congregation in L 2 CONC ondon, and for the same, kept long time in prison, upon ref 2 CONC usal of the oath, ex-officio, being in Boston upon a sacram 2 CONC ent day, after the sermon, desired leave of the eongregatio 2 CONC n to be present at the administration, but said that he dur 2 CONC st not desire to partake in it, because he was not then i 2 CONC n order, being dismissed from his former cougregation, an 2 CONC d he thought it not fit to be suddenly admitted into any ot 2 CONC her, for example sake, and because of the deceitfulness o 2 CONC f man's heart." 2 CONT On reaching Boston with that portion of his London flock wh 2 CONC o had accompanied him, he found already the preparations be 2 CONC gun to welcome him to a new home in Scituate. At least nin 2 CONC e pioneers had built their houses in that new settlement, a 2 CONC nd to it, with such of his people as were ready to accompan 2 CONC y him, he repaired Sept. 27, 1634. Sometime near the end o 2 CONC f September he makes an entry in the private journal to pre 2 CONC serve the names of those pioneers who had so prepared the w 2 CONC ay before him. Their names, Hatherly, Cudworth, Gillson, An 2 CONC niball, Rowlyes, Turner, Cobbes, Hewes, and Foster, show th 2 CONC em to have been mainly London and Kent men; and would sugge 2 CONC st that they had known of Mr. Lothropp's previous career an 2 CONC d had calied him to come among them as their minister. 2 CONT A letter, written in December by one of them. James Cudwort 2 CONC h, to the Rev. Dr. John Stoughton, of St. Mary's Church, Al 2 CONC dermanbury, London, confirms this supposition. In referrin 2 CONC g to the unsettled plantations near Boston, of which he nam 2 CONC es three, Duxbury, Scituate, and Bear Cove, he then speak 2 CONC s of the second: 2 CONT "Oures, Cittewate, to whom the Lord has bine verey gracious 2 CONC , & his p'vidence has bine Admoralely sene oure beyenge t 2 CONC o bringe vs oure Pastor, whome wee so longe expected--Mr La 2 CONC thorpe, who the Lord has brought to vs in safety, whome we 2 CONC e finde to bee a holy, Reuerat & heuenly minded man." 2 CONT This shows that in some sort the new home and field of mini 2 CONC sterial labor had been already prepared for Mr. Lothroppe a 2 CONC t Scituate. Of his cordial welcome to it, we have this plea 2 CONC sant testimony from the pen of Mr. Otis. 2 CONT "The kindly reception which was extended to him, and the co 2 CONC rdial welcomes with which he was greeted, were most gratify 2 CONC ing to his feelings, and he resolved that Scituate should b 2 CONC e his future home--the fold into which he would gather toge 2 CONC ther the estrays of his scattered flocks. His grateful hear 2 CONC t believed that the hand of God had opened this door for hi 2 CONC m,--had at last given him a resting-place from his toils. H 2 CONC ere, protected by law, he could build up church institution 2 CONC s, and here he and his family could dwell together in peace 2 CONC , surrounded by the loving friends of his youth. Willing ha 2 CONC nds quickly built a house for his family, of "meane" propor 2 CONC tions, and of "meaner" architecture, yet it was a shelter f 2 CONC rom the storm -a place that he could call his own--a blessi 2 CONC ng from 'Him who had not where to lay His head.'" 2 CONT Of the house which is thus characterized as of "meane propo 2 CONC rtions," Mr. Otis gives this description: 2 CONT "The walls were made of poles filled between with stones an 2 CONC d clay, the roof thatched, the chimney to the mantel of rou 2 CONC gh stone, and above of cobwork, the windows of oiled paper 2 CONC , and the floors of hand-sawed planks." 2 CONT The following record, preserved for us in the handwriting o 2 CONC f the Scituate pioneer, is perhaps the only record extant r 2 CONC egarding his call and settlement in the miuistry at Scituat 2 CONC e: 2 CONT "Jann: 19, 1634, att my house, uppon weh day I was chosen P 2 CONC astour and invested into office." 2 CONT Whatever the service of investiture may have been, there ca 2 CONC n hardly be room for doubt that it was as simple and unpret 2 CONC ending as the times and the people calling for it compelled 2 CONC . Previously to this date the services had been held in Mr 2 CONC . James Cudworth's house; and afterwards, for some time, w 2 CONC e find the congregation worshiping in private dwellings. 2 CONT But of the beginning of his work in Scituate we have fortun 2 CONC ately a record preserved in the copy made by the Rev. Dr. S 2 CONC tiles, President of Yale College in 1769, from the origina 2 CONC l in the handwriting of Mr. Lothropp himself. The followin 2 CONC g extract from this copy, which was printed in the Historic 2 CONC al and Genealogical Register for July, 1855, is worthy of p 2 CONC reservation in this sketch: 2 CONT "Touching the congregation (& church) of Christ collected a 2 CONC tt Scituate. The 28 of September, 1634, being the Lord's da 2 CONC y, I came to Scituate the night before & on the Lord's da 2 CONC y spent my first Labours, Forenoon & Afternoon. 2 CONT "Upon the 23 of Novemb. 1634 or Breathren of Situate that w 2 CONC ere members at Plimouth were dismissed from their membershi 2 CONC pp, in case they joyned in a body att Situate. 2 CONT "Upon January 8, 1634 (O. S.) Wee had a day of humilatio 2 CONC n & and then att night joyned in covena??t togeather. So ma 2 CONC ny of us as had beene in Covenaunt before." 2 CONT Then follow the names of eight brethren and the wives of fo 2 CONC ur of them, and the eleventh, "myselfe," shows that this pi 2 CONC oneer minister at Scituate counted himself as one of the in 2 CONC fant church, which he was called to serve. 2 CONT That Mr. Lathrop was still a widower at this date is probab 2 CONC le from the manner in which his own record is made. But tha 2 CONC t he soon married again is shown by the records of his chur 2 CONC ch, made by himself in 1635. Record No. 25 gives us this kn 2 CONC owledge: "My wife and Brother Foxwell's wife joyned havin 2 CONC g their dismission from elsewhere, June 14, 1635." Who thi 2 CONC s second wife was we shall not probably be able to learn, s 2 CONC ave that her Christian name was Anna. That she was the moth 2 CONC er of all of his children born in this country is doubtles 2 CONC s true. Mr. Otis supposes her to have been the daughter o 2 CONC f William Hammond of Watertown, and says that she was a wid 2 CONC ow. He also gives the date of her marriage Feb. 17, 1687-8 2 CONC , which, as Mr. Lathrop had been dead over thirty years, co 2 CONC uld not have been. He also says that she died Feb. 25, 1687 2 CONC -8, which is possible. 2 CONT The settlement at Scituate was increased by a large additio 2 CONC n in the summer of 1635, mainly by a new immigration from K 2 CONC ent. The worship of the people had thus far been held in th 2 CONC e house of Mr. Cudworth. On Monday, Jan. 29, 1635, a meetin 2 CONC g was held in Mr. Lothropp's house, a meeting for humiliati 2 CONC on and prayer. In that private dwelling, by the votes of th 2 CONC e brethren assembled, Mr. Lothropp was formally chosen th 2 CONC e minister of the place, and by the laying on of their hand 2 CONC s he was, as he fully believed, in true Apostolic manner on 2 CONC ce more inducted into the pastoral office. 2 CONT Down to Nov. 11, 1638, Mr. Lothropp had entered on this rec 2 CONC ord sixty-two names, and among them from his own family cir 2 CONC cle the following: 2 CONT No. 36 and 37. Isaac Robinson & My Sonn Fuller joyned havin 2 CONC g their Letters dismissive from the church at Plimouth unt 2 CONC o us Novemb. 7, 1636. 2 CONT No. 51. My Sonn Thomas Lothropp joyned May 4, 1637. 2 CONT No. 60 & 61. My Brother Robert Linnell & his wife havin 2 CONC g a letter of dismission from the church in Londou joyned t 2 CONC o us, Septemb. 16, 1638. 2 CONT The records made by Mr. Lothropp, from which we have now co 2 CONC pied, are a good witness to us of what we shall have occasi 2 CONC on to note hereafter, his unusually methodical and efficien 2 CONC t business habits. They have been deemed of such importanc 2 CONC e as to have been copied not less than five times, at leas 2 CONC t all of them which survived the wear of that first centur 2 CONC y of change. Taken to Connecticut by the Rev. Elijah Lothro 2 CONC p of Gilead, No. 295, and falling into the hands of the Rev 2 CONC . Dr. Ezra Stiles of Yale College, in 1769, he made a cop 2 CONC y of them, which are now among his manuscript papers in Yal 2 CONC e Library. The Rev. Mr. Carleton, of Barnstable, copied Dr 2 CONC . Stiles's copy, and from this copy, collated with another 2 CONC , made by the Rev. Jonathan Russell, Mr. Otis prepared th 2 CONC e copy of the "Scituate and Barustable Church Records," whi 2 CONC ch was printed in Vols. IX and X of the New England Histori 2 CONC cal and Genealogical Register. 2 CONT On his consenting to settle in Scituate, the court grante 2 CONC d him a farm, which their committee laid out, according t 2 CONC o Mr. Deane, on the southeast side of Coleman's hill. It wa 2 CONC s "nigh the first Herring brook when it approaches neares 2 CONC t to the Sand hills; bounded by Josiah Chickett's land west 2 CONC , by John Hewes' land & the high way south, & by Humphrey T 2 CONC urner's east." He was also assigned shares in the New Harbo 2 CONC r Marshes between his house and the North river. 2 CONT Though welcomed to this field by some who must have known h 2 CONC im in England, and who probably had been his parishioners t 2 CONC here, we learn from Mr. Deane that his ministry in Scituat 2 CONC e "was not prosecuted with great success or in much peace. 2 CONC " The principal reason assigned for his early removal to Ba 2 CONC rnstable has been the difference between himself and some o 2 CONC f his people on the question of baptism. While this or som 2 CONC e other cause of alienation in the church is most apparen 2 CONC t in the records which he left, another ground of dissatisf 2 CONC action at Scituate, is the only one formally named in the l 2 CONC etters which follow, and which are here introduced for th 2 CONC e two-fold purpose of explaining the removal which so soo 2 CONC n followed the settlement, and also to preserve the only au 2 CONC thentic document from his pen-- excepting the church record 2 CONC s--now known to the author to exist. That copies of his "Qu 2 CONC eries respecting Baptism" were printed in London, a few yea 2 CONC rs after his removal to Barnstable, we know from "Hamburg' 2 CONC s Independents," in which he refers to them. Yet probably n 2 CONC o copy of the issue can now be recovered; certainly none i 2 CONC s indexed among the Lothrop collections in the British Muse 2 CONC um, and no autiquary of whom I enquired in England had eve 2 CONC r seen it. 2 CONT The letters which now follow were found among Mr. Winslow' 2 CONC s papers, and were published in the first volume, second se 2 CONC ries of the Massachusetts Historical Collections: 2 CONT "Situate, February 18, 1638. 2 CONT "To the right worthy and much-revereneed, Mr. Prince, gover 2 CONC nor--Grace, mercy and peace be forever multiplied. 2 CONT "Sundry circumstances of importance concurring towards th 2 CONC e present state of myself and the people in covenant with m 2 CONC e, presse me yett againe to sett pen to paper, to the end t 2 CONC hat the busyness in hand might with greater expedition be p 2 CONC ressed forward, if it may be: not willing to leave any lawf 2 CONC ul means unattempted, that we are able to judge, to be th 2 CONC e means of God, that soe we might have the more comfort t 2 CONC o rest in the issue that God himselfe shall give in the us 2 CONC e of his own means.

Three names are subscribed beneath the name of Mr. Lo 2 CONC thropp, which are not perfectly legible: 2 CONT the first appears to be Anthony Aniball; the second, (??? 2 CONC ) Cobb; the third, (???) Robiuson; to which are added the w 2 CONC ords, "In behalf of the church." [Superscribed thus:] 2 CONT "To the right worthy and much-reverenced Mr. Prince, Govern 2 CONC or at Plimouth." 2 CONT Leaving the foregoing letters to explain as they may the re 2 CONC asons for a removal, we find the following statement of Mr 2 CONC . Otis as to its date: "Mr. Lothropp and the large compan 2 CONC y arrived in Barnstable, Oct. 11, 1639, O. S., bringing wit 2 CONC h them the crops which they had raised in Scituate. Presse 2 CONC d as they must have been with the preparations needed for w 2 CONC intering comfortably in their new home, they did not forge 2 CONC t that the main object of their pilgrimage from the mothe 2 CONC r land, was the service and glory of God. 2 CONT With no house of worship yet built, they meet and worship i 2 CONC n the rude pioneer house of one of their number," poor Mr 2 CONC . Hull. Ten days after their arrival they gave a whole da 2 CONC y to fasting, humiliation, and prayer, whose object was "Fo 2 CONC r the grace of God to settle us here in church estate and t 2 CONC o unite us together in holy walking, and make us faithful i 2 CONC n keeping covenant with God and one another." 2 CONT Eleven days later, on the eleventh of December, they set ap 2 CONC art another day for religious worship, this time for the wo 2 CONC rship of thanksgiving. "The day was very cold, and after th 2 CONC e close of the public service they divided into three compa 2 CONC nies to feast together, some at Mr. Hull's, some at Mr. May 2 CONC o's, and some at brother Lumberd, Senior's." 2 CONT What sort of thanksgiving service they had under the lead o 2 CONC f Mr. Lothropp, appears from the records of the Seituate ch 2 CONC urch, in reporting the first Thanksgiving in the new town 2 CONC , Dec. 22, 1636, the record covering not only the religiou 2 CONC s offering of the public service, but also the festive an 2 CONC d social offerings in their several homes, afterward. It i 2 CONC s here quoted as setting before us, clearly, a practical es 2 CONC timate of the pioneer minister and his people: 2 CONT "Beginning some half an hour before nine, and continued unt 2 CONC il after twelve o'clocke, ye day being very cold, beginnin 2 CONC g with a short prayer, then a psalm sung, then more large i 2 CONC n prayer, after that another psalm, and the WORD taught, af 2 CONC ter that prayer, and then a psalm. Then making merry to th 2 CONC e creatures, the poorer sort being invited by the virtue." 2 CONT On coming to Barnstable, he built, according to Mr. Otis 2 CONC , a small house where Eldridge's hotel now stands. Mr. Palf 2 CONC rey tells us that "Four acres for a house lot had been assi 2 CONC gned to Mr. Lothrop, soon after his arrival, on the east si 2 CONC de that inclosure which probably had been used for intermen 2 CONC ts from the first settlement." But the first home of the ne 2 CONC w pastor was both too small and uncomfortable. His second w 2 CONC as a more substantial building, and made ready for occupanc 2 CONC y about 1644. That it was built of solid and enduring mater 2 CONC ial is well attested in the simple fact that its frame stil 2 CONC l stands. Mr. Otis thus testifies concerning it: "The hous 2 CONC e has undergone many trausformations, but the original rema 2 CONC ins. It is now one of the prettiest buildings in the villag 2 CONC e, and is occupied for a parsonage and a public library." 2 CONT It was with no ordinary emotions that I cailed to see tha 2 CONC t house in which the last years of the worthy pioneer o 2 CONC f a large proportion of our Lothrop and Lathrop race in thi 2 CONC s country had closed his mortal life. Though more than 22 2 CONC 9 years have passed away since its frame was built, here i 2 CONC s still somewhat left us, as a hint at least of the work an 2 CONC d worth of the day of Puritan beginnings here. Its foundati 2 CONC on builders were no mere fancy men, were in no sense fast m 2 CONC en--they were content by humble, hard toil to work God's be 2 CONC st materials into most enduring forms, on which the comin 2 CONC g generations could build in all time to come the worthies 2 CONC t monuments of these stout-hearted, truth-loving pioneers. 2 CONT Mr. Otis, who has written more upon the American life of ou 2 CONC r pioneer than any other writer, and who being on the groun 2 CONC d where he spent the last years of his ministerial life an 2 CONC d thoroughly familiar with all the records of the church an 2 CONC d town, and perhaps had facilities for forming an estimat 2 CONC e of his character and influence which no other man has use 2 CONC d to the same extent, has at several points in his weekly a 2 CONC rticles on "John Lothropp and his descendants," given glimp 2 CONC ses of the man which we can do no better than to preserve. 2 CONT In No. 230 of his articles, he says: "John Lothrop and hi 2 CONC s followers were held by the people to be martyrs in the ca 2 CONC use of Independency. No persecutions, no severity that thei 2 CONC r enemies could inflict, caused him, or one of his follower 2 CONC s to waver. They submitted without a murmur to loss of prop 2 CONC erty, to imprisonment in loathsome jails, and to be separat 2 CONC ed for two years from their families and friends, rather th 2 CONC an subscribe to the forms of worship that Charles and his b 2 CONC igoted prelates endeavored to foree on their consciences." 2 CONT In No. 245, he says of him and his sons: "Mr. Lothrop was a 2 CONC s distinguished for his worldly wisdom as for his piety. H 2 CONC e was a good business man, and so were all of his sons. Whe 2 CONC rever one of the family pitched his tent, that spot soon be 2 CONC came a center of business, and land in its vicinity appreci 2 CONC ated in value. It is the men that make a place, and to Mr 2 CONC . Lothrop's in early times, Barnstable was more indebted th 2 CONC an to any other family." 2 CONT From No. 231, we take the following: "Whatever exceptions w 2 CONC e may take to Mr. Lothrop's theological opinions, all mus 2 CONC t admit that he was a good and true man, an independent thi 2 CONC nker, and a man who held opinions in advance of his times 2 CONC . Even in Massachusetts, a half century has not elapsed sin 2 CONC ce his opinions on religious toleration have been adopted b 2 CONC y the legislature." 2 CONT Mr. Lothrop fearlessly proclaimed in Old and in New Englan 2 CONC d the great truth that man is not responsible to his fello 2 CONC w man in matters of faith and conscience. Differences of op 2 CONC inion he tole??ted. 2 CONT During the fourteen years that he was pastor of the Barns?? 2 CONC ble church, such was his influence over the people that th 2 CONC e power of the civil magistrate was not needed to restrai 2 CONC n crime. No pastor was ever more beloved by his people, non 2 CONC e ever had a greater influence for good. * * * * To becom 2 CONC e a member of his church, no applicant was compelled to sig 2 CONC n a creed or confession of faith. He retained his freedom 2 CONC . He professed his faith in God, and promised that it shoul 2 CONC d be his constant endeavor to keep His commandments, to liv 2 CONC e a pure life, and to walk in love with the brethren." 2 CONT Mr. Morton, who "thought meet in his Memorial to nominate s 2 CONC ome of the Specialest" of the worthy ministers whom God ha 2 CONC d sent into New England, names as the fourth on his list "M 2 CONC r. John Laythorp, sometimes preacher of Gods word in Egerto 2 CONC n." and elsewhere in the Memorial he testifies to his forme 2 CONC r fidelity in London, in witnessing against the errors of t 2 CONC he times. Still again he says of him: "He was a man of humb 2 CONC le and broken heart spirit, lively in dispensation of the W 2 CONC ord of God, studious of peace, furnished with godly content 2 CONC ment, willing to spend and be spent for the cause of the ch 2 CONC urch of Christ." 2 CONT Mr. Lothropp died in Barnstable, Nov. 8, 1653, the last ent 2 CONC ry on his church records in his own hand having been made J 2 CONC une 15, 1653. 2 CONT A will was made by him which he failed of signing, though i 2 CONC t was, without objection, admitted to probate. Letters of a 2 CONC dministration were however granted March 7, 1653-4 to "Mrs 2 CONC . Laythorpe," and Mr. Thomas Prence was "appointed and requ 2 CONC ested by the court to take oath unto the estate at home." T 2 CONC he following is a memoranda of the will as left by Mr. Loth 2 CONC ropp: 2 CONT "To my wife my new dwelling house. To my oldest son Thomas 2 CONC , the house in which I first lived in Barnstable. To my so 2 CONC n John in England, and Benjamin here, each a cow and p5.

He was driven into hiding by a Viking raid in 2 CONC to Wessex, led by the Dane, Guthorm, and took refuge in th 2 CONC e Athelney marshes in Somerset. There, he recovered suffici 2 CONC ent strength to be able to defeat the Danes decisively at t 2 CONC he Battle of Eddington. As a condition of the peace treat 2 CONC y which followed, Guthorm received Christian baptism and wi 2 CONC thdrew his forces from Wessex, with Alfred recognizing th 2 CONC e Danish control over East Anglia and parts of Mercia. Thi 2 CONC s partition of England, called the "Danelaw", was formalize 2 CONC d by another treaty in 886. 2 CONT Alfred created a series of fortifications to surround his k 2 CONC ingdom and provide needed security from invasion. The Anglo 2 CONC -Saxon word for these forts, "burhs", has come down to us i 2 CONC n the common place-name suffix, "bury." He also constructe 2 CONC d a fleet of ships to augment his other defenses, and in s 2 CONC o doing became known as the "Father of the English Navy." T 2 CONC he reign of Alfred was known for more than military success 2 CONC . He was a codifier of law, a promoter of education and a s 2 CONC uppor|er of the arts. He, himself, was a scholar and transl 2 CONC ated Latin books into the Anglo-Saxon tongue. The definitiv 2 CONC e contemporary work on Alfred's life is an unfinished accou 2 CONC nt in Latin by Asser , a Welshman 2 CONC , bishop of Sherbourne and Alfred's counsellor. After his d 2 CONC eath, he was buried in his capital city of Winchester, an 2 CONC d is the only English monarch in history to carry the title 2 CONC , "the Great." 2 CONT Alfred's Genealogy 2 CONT A guide to the monarch's ancestors and offspring. These tra 2 CONC ils can lead you through the history of Europe's royal hous 2 CONC es and to some unexpected places. 2 CONT 2 CONT Asser's Life of Alfred 2 CONT Online translation of the biography of Alfred by Bishop Ass 2 CONC er, his personal advisor. 2 CONT 2 CONT *************************** 2 CONT 2 CONT Bishop Asser: 2 CONT Life of King Alfred 2 CONT Although similar to the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle in its annali 2 CONC stic approach, Asser personalized his "Life of King Alfred 2 CONC " so that the man, and not just the Christian king who vanq 2 CONC uished the paganistic heathen, was presented. Asser's "Life 2 CONC " differs also in its use of Latin, not the vernacular in w 2 CONC hich most sources from Alfred's reign are written. 2 CONT 2 CONT In the year of our Lord's incarnation the eight hundred an 2 CONC d seventy-eighth, and the thirtieth from King Alfred's birt 2 CONC h, the oft-mentioned army left Exeter and came to Chippenha 2 CONC m, a royal vill located in the north of Wiltshire on the ea 2 CONC stern bank of the river called Avon in Welsh, and there win 2 CONC tered. And through force of arms and want, as well as throu 2 CONC gh fear, they drove many of the people there to go beyond s 2 CONC ea, and brough most of the inhabitants of the district unde 2 CONC r their rule. 2 CONT At the same time the said King Alfred, with a few of his no 2 CONC bles and some knights and men of his household, was in grea 2 CONC t distress leading an unquiet life in the woods and marshe 2 CONC s of Somerset. For he had no means of support except what h 2 CONC e took in frequent raids by stealth or openly from the paga 2 CONC ns, or indeed from Christians who had submitted to pagan ru 2 CONC le. 2 CONT In the same year the brother of Inwar and Halfdene with twe 2 CONC nty-three boats sailed forthe from the country of Dyfed [th 2 CONC e extreme south of Wales], where he had wintered and wher 2 CONC e he had slain many Christians, to Devon; and there, befor 2 CONC e the stronghold of Cynwit, he with twelve hundred others w 2 CONC as miserably cut off in his wrong-doing by the king's follo 2 CONC wers, for many of the latter had shut themselves up there f 2 CONC or safety. But when the pagans saw the stronghold unprepare 2 CONC d and unguarded except for defenses built after our manner 2 CONC , they did not venture to storm it because from the natur 2 CONC e of the ground the place was very secure on every side exc 2 CONC ept on the eas, as I myself have seen; instead they began t 2 CONC o besiege it, thinking that those men would quickly be forc 2 CONC ed to surrender because of hunger and thirst, for there wa 2 CONC s no water near. But it did not turn out as they expected 2 CONC . For the Christians, before they suffered any such straits 2 CONC , prompted by God to believe it much better to win either d 2 CONC eath or victory, at dawn made an unexpected sortie upon th 2 CONC e pagans, and shortly slew most of them, together with thei 2 CONC r king, only a few escaping to the boats. 2 CONT In the same year after Easter, King Alfred, with a few to h 2 CONC elp him, made a stronghold in a place called Athelney, an 2 CONC d thence kept tirelessly making attacks upon the pagans wit 2 CONC h his Somersetshire retainers. And again in the seventh wee 2 CONC k after Easter he rode to Egbert's Stone, which is in the e 2 CONC astern part of the forest called Selwood--in Latin "Sylva M 2 CONC agna," in Welsh "Coit Maur"--and there met him there all th 2 CONC e dwellers about the districts of Somerset, Wiltshire, an 2 CONC d Hampshire, who had not through fear of the pagans gone be 2 CONC yond sea; and when they saw the king, after such great suff 2 CONC erings, almost as one risen from the dead, they were fille 2 CONC d with unbounded joy, as it was right they should be; and t 2 CONC hey pitched camp there for one night. At dawn the next morn 2 CONC ing the king moved his camp thence and came to a place call 2 CONC ed Aeglea, and there encamped one night. 2 CONT Moving his standards thence the next morning, he came t 2 CONC o a place called Edington, and with a close shield-wall fou 2 CONC ght fiercely against the whole army of the pagans; his atta 2 CONC ck was long and spirited, and finally by divine aid he triu 2 CONC mphed and overthrew the pagans with a very great slaughter 2 CONC . He pursued them, killing them as they fled up to the stro 2 CONC nghold, where he seized all that he found outside--men, hor 2 CONC ses, and cattle--slaying the men at once; and before the ga 2 CONC tes of the pagan fortress he boldly encamped with his whol 2 CONC e army. And when he had stayed there fourteen days and th 2 CONC e pagans had known the horrors of famine, cold, fear, and a 2 CONC t last of despair, they sought a peace by which the king wa 2 CONC s to take from them as many named hostages as he wished whi 2 CONC le he gave none to them--a kind of peace that they had neve 2 CONC r before concluded with any one. When the king heard thei 2 CONC r message he was moved to pity, and of his own accord recei 2 CONC ved from them such designated hostages as he wished. In add 2 CONC ition to this, after the hostages were taken, the pagans to 2 CONC ok oath that they would most speedily leave his kingdom, an 2 CONC d also Guthrum, their king, promised to accept Christianit 2 CONC y and to receive baptism at the hands of King Alfred. All t 2 CONC hese things he and his men fulfilled as they had promised 2 CONC . For after three weeks Guthrum, king of the pagans, with t 2 CONC hirty selected men of his army, came to King Alfred at a pl 2 CONC ace called Aller near Athelney. And Alfred received him a 2 CONC s son by adoption, raising him from the sacred font of bapt 2 CONC ism; and his chrism-loosing on the eighth day was in the ro 2 CONC yal vill called Wedmore. After he was baptized he stayed wi 2 CONC th the king twelve nights, and to him and all the men wit 2 CONC h him the king generously gave many valuable gifts. 2 CONT In the year of our Lord's incarnation the eight hundred an 2 CONC d seventy-ninth, and the thirty-first from King Alfred's bi 2 CONC rth, the said army of pagans left Chippenham according to p 2 CONC romise and went to Cirencester (in Welsh "Cairceri"), locat 2 CONC ed in the southern part of the district of the Hwicce, an 2 CONC d there spent a year. 2 CONT In the same year a great army of pagans from foreign part 2 CONC s sailed up the Thames River and joined the larger army, bu 2 CONC t wintered at a place called Fulham by the Thames. 2 CONT In the same year an eclipse of the sun occurred between non 2 CONC es and vespers, but nearer to nones. 2 CONT In the year of our Lord's incarnation the eight hundred an 2 CONC d eightieth, and of King Alfred's life the thirty-second, t 2 CONC he oft-mentioned army of pagans left Cirencester and went t 2 CONC o the East Angles; and, dividing the district, they began t 2 CONC o settle there. 2 CONT In the same year the army of pagans which had wintered at F 2 CONC ulham left the island of Britain, crossed the sea, and cam 2 CONC e to East Francia. It remained for a year at a place calle 2 CONC d Ghent. 2 CONT In the year of our Lord's incarnation the eight hundred an 2 CONC d eighty-first, and the thirty-third from King Alfred's bir 2 CONC th, the said army penetrated farther into Francia.

And the command 2 CONC ers of two other boats, with all their fellows, were so tho 2 CONC roughly beaten and so badly wounded that they laid down the 2 CONC ir arms and on bended knees and with humble prayers surrend 2 CONC ered. 2 CONT In the year of our Lord's incarnation the eight hundred an 2 CONC d eighty-third, and the thirty-fifth from King Alfred's bir 2 CONC th, the said army pushed its boats up-stream along the rive 2 CONC r Scheldt to a convent of nuns known as Conde, and there re 2 CONC mained one year. 2 CONT In the year of our Lord's incarnation the eight hundred an 2 CONC d eighty-fourth, [Asser inserted the events of 885 into th 2 CONC e slot for 884] and the thirty-sixth from King Alfred's bir 2 CONC th, the said army divided into two troops. One went to Eas 2 CONC t Francia, and the other came to Kent in Britain and besieg 2 CONC ed the city which is called Rochester in Saxon, and which i 2 CONC s located on the east bank of the Medway. Before its gate t 2 CONC he pagans quickly built themselves a strong tower; but the 2 CONC y were not able to take the city, because the citizens defe 2 CONC nded themselves vigorously until King Alfred came to its ai 2 CONC d with a large army. And then the pagans, on the unexpecte 2 CONC d arrival of the king, left their tower and all the horse 2 CONC s which they had brought with them from Francia, and also m 2 CONC ost of their captives, and fled in haste to their boats, wh 2 CONC ile the Saxons seized the captives and the horses. And so t 2 CONC he pagans were forced by extreme necessity to sail again in 2 CONC to Francia that same summer. 2 CONT In the same year Alfred, king of the Anglo-Saxons, transfer 2 CONC red his fleet, filled with warriors, from Kent to the Eas 2 CONC t Angles for the sake of plunder. And when they had come t 2 CONC o the mouth of the river Stour, suddenly thirteen boats o 2 CONC f the pagans, ready for battle, met them; and a naval battl 2 CONC e was begun which was bitterly contested on both sides, bu 2 CONC t which resulted in the killing of all the pagans and the s 2 CONC eizure of all their boats and goods. However, while the vic 2 CONC torious royal fleet was resting, the pagans who lived in th 2 CONC e land of the East Angles gathered boats together from an 2 CONC y place in which they could find them and met the king's fl 2 CONC eet at the mouth of the same river, and in the battle whic 2 CONC h followed gained the victory. 2 CONT In the same year also Carloman, king of the East Franks, wh 2 CONC ile on a boar-hunt was so horribly bitten by a boar that h 2 CONC e died. His brother was Lewis, who had died the year befor 2 CONC e and who was also king of the Franks; they were both son 2 CONC s of Lewis, king of the Franks. This was the Lewis who ha 2 CONC d died in the above-mentioned year in which the eclipse too 2 CONC k place, and who was son of Charles, king of the Franks, wh 2 CONC ose daughter Judith was, with her father's consent, taken a 2 CONC s queen by Ethelwulf, king of the West Saxons. 2 CONT Moreover, in the same year a great army of pagans came fro 2 CONC m Germany to the land of the Old Saxons, in Saxon called "E 2 CONC ald Seaxum." Against them these same Saxons and the Frisian 2 CONC s joined forces and fought bravely twice in that year. By d 2 CONC ivine mercy the Christians won both these battles. 2 CONT Also in this year Charles, king of the Germans, acquired, w 2 CONC ith the voluntary consent of all, the kingdom of the East F 2 CONC ranks and all the kingdoms which are between the Tyrrhenia 2 CONC n Sea and that ocean gulf which lies between the Old Saxon 2 CONC s and the Gauls, excepting the kingdom of Amorica. [Brittan 2 CONC y] This Charles was the son of King Lewis, and Lewis was th 2 CONC e brother of that Charles, king of the Franks, who was fath 2 CONC er of Judith, the above-mentioned queen; and these two brot 2 CONC hers were sons of Lewis, who was the son of Charles, the so 2 CONC n of Pippin. 2 CONT In the same year Pope Marinus of blessed memory went the wa 2 CONC y of all flesh. He it was who for love and at the petitio 2 CONC n of Alfred, king of the Anglo-Saxons, graciously release 2 CONC d the colony of the Saxons residing in Rome from all tribut 2 CONC e and toll. Indeed, he took the occasion to send many gift 2 CONC s to the said king; among which was no small portion of tha 2 CONC t most holy and revered cross on which our Lord Jesus Chris 2 CONC t hung for the salvation of all men. 2 CONT And also in this year the army of pagans which was living a 2 CONC mong the East Angles disgracefully broke the peace which i 2 CONC t had entered into with King Alfred.... 2 CONT In the year of our Lord's incarnation the eight hundred an 2 CONC d eighty-sixth, and the thirty-eighth of Alfred's life, th 2 CONC e oft-mentioned army fleeing from this region went again in 2 CONC to the land of the West Franks; they entered by the river c 2 CONC alled Seine and pushed far up-stream in their boats even t 2 CONC o the city of Paris, and there wintered. And they laid ou 2 CONC t their camp on both sdes of the river nar to the bridge i 2 CONC n order to keep the citizens from crossing--for this city i 2 CONC s located on a small island in the middle of the river. An 2 CONC d they besieged the city that whole year, but through God' 2 CONC s favor and the vigorous defense of the citizens they coul 2 CONC d not break the fortifications. 2 CONT In the same year Alfred, king of the Anglo-Saxons, after th 2 CONC e burning of cities and the slaughter of peoples, honorabl 2 CONC y restored the city of London and made it habitable; and h 2 CONC e intrusted its defense to Ethelred, ealdorman of the Merci 2 CONC ans. And all the Angles and Saxons who had before been wide 2 CONC ly scattered or who were [not] in captivity with the pagan 2 CONC s voluntarily turned to the king and placed themselves unde 2 CONC r his rule. 2 CONT Britannia's British History Department 2 CONT The course of English history would have been very diff 2 CONC erent had it not been for King Alfred. He won renown both a 2 CONC s a statesman and as a warrior and is justly called "the Gr 2 CONC eat." 2 CONT 2 CONT The England of Alfred's time was a country of four smal 2 CONC l Saxon kingdoms. The strongest was Wessex, in the south. B 2 CONC orn in about 848, Alfred was the youngest son of Ethelwulf 2 CONC , king of Wessex. Each of Alfred's three older brothers, i 2 CONC n turn, ruled the kingdom. Alfred was by temperament a scho 2 CONC lar, and his health was never robust. 2 CONT 2 CONT Nevertheless in his early youth he fought with his broth 2 CONC er Ethelred against Danish invaders. Alfred was 23 when Eth 2 CONC elred died, but he had already won the confidence of the ar 2 CONC my and was at once acclaimed king in 871. By this time th 2 CONC e Danes, or Vikings, had penetrated to all parts of the isl 2 CONC and. Three of the Saxon kingdoms--Northumbria, Mercia, an 2 CONC d East Anglia--had one after another fallen to the Danish i 2 CONC nvaders. 2 CONT 2 CONT Under Alfred's leadership, the Saxons again found courag 2 CONC e. The worst crisis came in the winter of 877, when the Dan 2 CONC ish king, Guthrum, invaded Wessex with his army. In 878 Alf 2 CONC red was defeated at Chippenham, where he was celebrating Ch 2 CONC ristmas, and was forced to go into hiding. 2 CONT 2 CONT A few months later he forced Guthrum to surrender at Chi 2 CONC ppenham. The Danes agreed to make the Thames River and th 2 CONC e old Roman road called Watling Street the boundary betwee 2 CONC n Alfred's kingdom and the Danish lands to the north. The t 2 CONC reaty, however, did not assure permanent peace. The Danes a 2 CONC ssaulted London and the coast towns repeatedly. In about 89 2 CONC 6 they finally admitted defeat and ceased their struggle fo 2 CONC r a foothold in southern England. 2 CONT 2 CONT Alfred was much more than the defender of his country. H 2 CONC e took a keen interest in law and order and was concerned w 2 CONC ith the improvement of the cultural standards of his people 2 CONC . He encouraged industries of all kinds and rebuilt London 2 CONC , which had been partly destroyed by the Danes. He collecte 2 CONC d and revised the old laws of the kingdom. He invited learn 2 CONC ed men from other countries to instruct the people becaus 2 CONC e even the clergy of Wessex no longer knew Latin, the inter 2 CONC national language of the church. He established a school si 2 CONC milar to the Palace School of Charlemagne. 2 CONT 2 CONT The "books most necessary for all men to know" were tran 2 CONC slated from Latin into English so that the people might rea 2 CONC d them. Alfred himself took a part in preparing the transla 2 CONC tions. The 'Anglo-Saxon Chronicle' was probably begun unde 2 CONC r his direction. 2 CONT 2 CONT Alfred died at the age of about 51 in 899. He was in n 2 CONC o sense a true king of England, for he ruled less than hal 2 CONC f of the island. After his death, however, his capable son 2 CONC , Edward the Elder, and his grandsons extended their rule o 2 CONC ver all of England. 2 CONT 2 CONT --------------------------------------------------------- 2 CONT Excerpted from Compton's Interactive Encyclopedia 2 CONT Copyright © 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997 The Learning Company, In 2 CONC c.

H 2 CONC e assumed the throne of Wessex upon his father's death in 8 2 CONC 39. His reign is characterized by the usual Viking invasion 2 CONC s and repulsions common to all English rulers of the time 2 CONC , but the making of war was not his chief claim to fame. Ęt 2 CONC helwulf is remembered, however dimly, as a highly religiou 2 CONC s man who cared about the establishment and preservation o 2 CONC f the church. He was also a wealthy man and controlled vas 2 CONC t resources. Out of these resources, he gave generously, t 2 CONC o Rome and to religious houses that were in need. 2 CONT He was an only child, but had fathered five sons, by his fi 2 CONC rst wife, Osburga. He recognized that there could be diffic 2 CONC ulties with contention over the succession. He devised a sc 2 CONC heme which would guarantee (insofar as it was possible to d 2 CONC o so) that each child would have his turn on the throne wit 2 CONC hout having to worry about rival claims from his siblings 2 CONC . Ęthelwulf provided that the oldest living child would suc 2 CONC ceed to the throne and would control all the resources of t 2 CONC he crown, without having them divided among the others, s 2 CONC o that he would have adequate resources to rule. That he wa 2 CONC s able to provide for the continuation of his dynasty i 2 CONC s a matter of record, but he was not able to guarantee fami 2 CONC lial harmony with his plan. This is proved by what we kno 2 CONC w of the foul plottings of his son, Ęthelbald, while Ęthelw 2 CONC ulf was on pilgrimage to Rome in 855. 2 CONT Ęthelwulf was a wise and capable ruler, whose vision made p 2 CONC ossible the beneficial reign of his youngest son, Alfred th 2 CONC e Great. 2 CONT ETHELWULF (r. 839-856) Ethelwulf was the son of Egbert. H 2 CONC e succeeded his father in 839. At Ethelwulf's request, hi 2 CONC s four sons each became king in turn rather than risk weakn 2 CONC ess in the kingdom by allowing young children to inherit th 2 CONC e mantle of leadership. 2 CONT King of England, reigned AD 839-858. Remains of his bones a 2 CONC re mixed in the chests above the choir of the Cathedral. Id 2 CONC entification of the contents of these chests is impossible 2 CONC , however, because during the English civil war in the 17t 2 CONC h century, Parliamentarian soldiers threw the original ches 2 CONC ts down to the ground and smashed them open.
