Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Historical Sketch of the First Congregational Church: Sturbridge, Massachusetts The settling of an orthodox minister and the promoting of a land-development scheme! - To-day, no combination of activities could seem much more incongruous. And yet, in the record of a land grant by our Massachusetts General Court is found the first point in the history of this Church of Christ. For it is to be observed that land developing two hundred years ago in the Colony of Massachusetts Bay was done with other methods and other objects than those commonly attributed to companies of shrewd men who secure grants of the public domain yet remaining undeveloped, it may be in Montana or in Alaska. Three times a group of Medfield men petitioned the General Court for a grant of land in this frontier wilderness. Twice their prayer was rejected. The representatives at Boston apparently doubted the ability of this inhospitable region to support a settlement. But the promoters were importunate.
