   Description
Excerpt from The New England Company of 1649 and John Eliot: The Ledger for the Years 1650-1660 and the Record Book of Meetings Between 1656 and 1686 of the Corporation for the Propagation of the Gospel in New EnglandThe souls of heathen peoples are mentioned frequently in the writings of those who organized the movement to settle Massachusetts, but their followers who crossed the Atlantic to make the settlement found so many other things to occupy both time and energy, and so few heathen in need of salvation, that the subject scarcely appears in the printed records of the first decade of Boston. There are bits of circumstantial evidence, however, which seem to imply that this factor among those which made the Great Immigration of 1 630 possible, was not forgotten by some of the religiously minded friends of the colony who remained in England, and that these sent money to the New World to be used to promote the saving of souls.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
