APPENDIX C. To the Honourable ROBERT BOYLE, Esq: Governour, And to the Company, for the Propagation of The Gospel to the Indians in New England, and Parts adjacent in America. HONOURABLE SRS,- -There are more than thirty years passed since the Charitable and Pious Collections were made throughout the Kingdom of England, for the Propagation of the Gospel to the Indians, Natives of His MAJESTIES Territories in America; and near the same time: since by His late MAJESTIES favour of ever blessed Memory, the Affair was erected into an Honourable Corporation by Charter under the Broad Seal of England; in all . which time our selves and those that were before us, that have been Your Stewards, and managed Your Trust here, are witnesses of Your earnest and sincere endeavours, that that good Work might prosper and flourish, not only by the good management of the Estate committed to You, but by Your own Charitable and Honourable Additions thereto; whereof this second Edition of the HOLY BIBLE in their own Language, much corrected and amended, we hope will be an everlasting witness; for wheresoever this Gospel shall be Preached, this also. that you have done, shall be spoken of for a Memorial of you; and as it hath, so it shall be our studious desire and endeavour, that the success amongst the Indians here, in reducing them into a civil and holy life, may in some measure answer the great and necessary Expences thereabouts: And our humble Prayer to Almighty God, that You may have the glorious Reward of your Service, both in this and in a better World. We are Your Honours most Humble and WILLIAM STOUGHTON. JOSEPH Dudley. PETER BULKLEY. THOMAS HINCKLEY. Boston, Octob. 23, 1685. APPENDIX D.
