Dr. Mather. They are not so accurate as he, but when used? comparatively, they are above value to the historian of A. Eng.? The authors names are unknown to us, but it was on account of the errors they contained that dr. Mather was induced to publish his account.

Talcot, by the author of the "Letters to London": for after saying that they had killed the old Queen Quaiapen & Stone-wall-john, he continued - "Likewise Potucke, the great Indian unclear (a man, considering his education, of a wonderful unclear) was brought prisoner into Rhode Island." His residence was near Point Judeth in 1661. A complaint signed by him and several others to the [gov. Mas.?]] of the encroachments of other indians is on file in our State House.
