Robin- son, were anxious to join their friends in America.
They had expressed this desire very earnestly ; but they were poor. They were unable to provide them- selves with an outfit, or even to pay for their passage across the Atlantic. In order to aid these exiled and impoverished brethren, Governor Bradford, Captain Standish, and several others, formed a company and purchased of the Plymouth colony all their right to trade with the Indians for six years. For this they paid twelve thousand do...llars. The main object of the purchasers seemed to be to raise money enough to bring over their friends from Holland. There were eight of the Pilgrim fathers united with four gentle- men in London who assumed these responsibilities.
Very truly Mr. Baylies writes : "The generosity of the chiefs of the colony to their Leyden brethren is unparalleled. They almost deprived themselves of the common necessaries of life to get them over, and to support them until they were able to support themselves ; laboring at the same time rnder heavy debts, for which thej paid exorbitant INCREASE OF THE SETTLEMENTS.
