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. One de-
scendent, an Indian Princess is a
director of Tales of Cape Cod,
helping to preserve the tales of
her ancestory.
