Timur Posted June 22, 2021 Author Share Posted June 22, 2021 (edited) Anne Hutchinson and her allies are supporting Henry Vane. Winthrop's son is supporting him obviously. "Rev. Thomas Shepard of Newtown (Cambridge) warns Rev. John Cotton of Boston that his "Free Grace" theology is misconstrued by the laity, which may develop into a larger problem. Three men are given six lashes for drunkeness" John Endicott leads protest of Gov. Vane's decision to fly English flag at the Fort in Boston, since Cross of St. George looks Catholic Rev. Roger Williams's settlement in Providence (Rhode Island) is said to be doing well. We wish the best for our misguided friend.

Fortunately, it was typed out as the handwriting would be hard to read. I had intended to do elections from 1630-1776 for Massachusetts. Then I I realized that would take forever, so I did this one as the most interesting. The next most interesting would be the 1676 (King Phillip's War), and the 1692--I think--(Salem Witch Trials), and then any during the French and Indian War, and then any during the Rev War. I just don't have time to make any new PI scenarios or update my scenarios as I'm making a new game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
