I don't believe he ever hunted for treasure, but here on Charter Street, at the corner of Salem Street, was where Sir William Phips lived, and he was a great treasure-hunter; and though he came to be gov- ernor of Massachusetts, he is remembered best by how he found some treasure, and how he lost Quebec.
We will walk home now, and I '11 tell you about him on the way." " How came Phips to be Sir William, grandfather, if he was born in America ? " 106 BOSTON TOWN.
" America was part of the Britis...h Empire then, Benjy, and the king could make a knight of a Bos- ton man if he chose. Phips was not born in Boston.
He was born in Maine, on the Kennebec, at what was then a frontier settlement, and grew up there poor and ignorant, for his mother and father are said to have had twenty-six children, and living there in the wilderness I don't think there was much chance for the boy to grow either rich or learned. But he was ambitious, and not meaning to stay in the backwoods learned the trade of ship-carpentry, and that brought him to Boston while he was still a young man.
