Description:This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1894 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XIX. THE INTERWOVEN PASTORATES. Eev. Stephen Bachiler, 1638-1641. Rev. Timothy Dalton, 1639-1661. Rev. John Wheelwright, 1647-1656. Rev.

The practice of the first settlers of the town was in accordance with their professed principles. They brought with them the ordinances of the gospel; for it is a matter of record, that when the grant for a plantation was made by the General Court, some of the grantees were already "united together by church government." They also brought with them a pastor, Rev. Stephen Bachiler, who may justly be regarded as the father and founder of the town. Mr. Bachiler was born in England about the year 1561, but at what place, is not known.
