And therefore (through divine assistance) I shall endeavor to give a particular & real acco of this affayrie In efort I come to declare matter of fact I shal promise some things nescecary to bee understood, for the better charms of our ensueing discourse. The Chrian Indians in New England have three dwellings in senora.. Jurisdictions of the English colonies & that as a considerable distance from each other. more particulary.
