Appointed a missionary of the Women's American Baptist For- eign Mission Society in 1913, Miss Crosby left for field duty in Jap- an a few months later. She taught for some years at the Tokyo Kindergarten Training Sch o o 1, also, supervising training kinder- gartens connected with the school. For short periods of time she served in the Misaki-Cho Tabern- acle, the Yotsuya Student's dor- mitory and the Bible Training school, all in Tokyo, as well as the Mead Christian Center in Osaka.

CENTERVILLE NEWS By Marion Vuillenmler (Continued from last week) INVITED TO MASHPEE Meanwhile a few seeds had sprouted down on Cape Cod. In 1670 John Eliot was invited to Mashpee at the call of Richard Bourne and the Indians there. Bourne was a layman who had moved to Sandwich in 1641. He soon became interested in his In- dian neighbors. He, like Eliot, realized that the Indians needed their own commu- nity and government. Using his legislative experience and con- tacts in the General Court, he worked faithfully and patiently un- til the legislature by Act in 1660 set aside 50 square miles of land in Mashpee for the Indians. Five years later in 1665 an act was passed which allowed the In- dians to hold their own court, try criminals and pass judgement. Bourne trained four Indian preach- ers as his assistants and reported that all of Mashpee - population between four and five hundred converted. Now John Eliot was on his way to officially create the new church. Governor Hutchinson's di a r y (ells us that before converts were admitted to church membership they were examined by magis- trates and ministers. Although In- dian missions began in 1646, the first Indian church was not gather- ed at Natick till 1651. Mr . Eliot ,he says, always in sisted on their becoming civilized at the same time they became Christians, fit subjects for Bap- tism. One can imagine the pre- paration Bourne and the Mashpee Indians had gone through to be ready for the great day. Hutchinson says "Eliot went down to the Indians at Mashpee where Richard Bourne, a godly man , on the 17th of August, 1670, was ordained pastor to an Indian Church which was gathered upon that day and the Indians and such of their children as were present were baptized." Hutchinson tells us also that on this same trip, Eliot visited the Vineyard where many also were baptized and received into the church. The Lord's supper was ad- ministered and since both English and Indians wished to partake, the sacrament was administered in both languages. At that same meeting the teach- er of the Nantucket Indians came to ask Mr. Mayhew to be pastor to the 90 families on that island. Mayhew refused, saying he pre- ferred to remain as advisor and councilor, leaving the leadership of the Indians to their own peo- ple. REV. TREAT ARRIVES Bourne had been trying to work with all the Cape Indians even as far as Truro, but this was an in- Samuel Treat, a 1669 graduate from heartened by the arrival of Rev. Sanuel Trest, a 1669 graduate from Harvard , who was called to the Parish at Eastham. He undertook all Indian work below Yarmouth and divided his time between whites and Indians. This was the greatest period of Indian evangelism. In 1674 Gen- eral Gookin , who was Superinten- dent of Civil Affairs in the Bay Colony, reported 14 official Indian towns. These were patterned after Natick and were visited every two weeks by Eliot when he lectured hi theology and logic. He was ac- companied by Gookin, who held court at the same time. These towns contained some 11,000 Indians. Gookin credits Ply- mouth colony In addition with five assemblies of Indians ministered to by John Cotton, while six as- semblies were on Cape Cod, one on Nantucket and two on Martha's Vineyard. Then war drums sounded in 1675 and the Praying Indian towns In- land were decimated. These In- dians were distrusted by whites and King Philip's forces, prey for both sides. The 200 Natick Indians were transported to Deer Island in Bos- ton Harbor for the duration of the war, much to their confusion and dismay. A number of them march- ed against King Philip, faithful to the English. 500 PRAYING INDIANS Cape and Island natives remain- ed peaceful, largely through the efforts of Bourne, Treat and Eliot. In 1693 Treat reported 500 praying Indians in his district, whereas 20 years before at the time of the war there were only 300. Four native preachers operated under his su- pervision and four Indian school- masters taught reading and writ- ing. Eliot , who was desolated by the plight of his Indians during and after the war, did his best to med- iate between white and red man and revive his work. The contri- butions from overseas were used to relocate the Deer Island In- dians in the vicinity of Boston. When Eliot died in his 84th year, there were four Indian towns left hi the Bay colony. Before long these also had passed intq oblivion, leaving only a heritage of Indian names. But at Gay Head on the Vine- yard and in Mashpee on Cape Cod Indian communities remain, now merged Into their surroundings, politically and racially.
