JOHN ALLERTON.

THOMAS ENGLISH.

WILLIAM TREVORE, and — 'ELY; two seamen; are commonly, but incorrectly reckoned in the number of the first company of passengers for the Colony; Bradford himself says: "Two other seamen were hired to stay a year; ~ when their time was out they both returned." Accordingly he says of the Mayflower company: "These being about a hundred souls, came over in the first ship." Afterwards he adds: "Of these one hundred persons who came over in this first ship together, the greatest half died in the general mortality, and most of them in two or three months' time." Omitting those two hired sailors who returned, and counting the person that died and the child that was born while on the passage as one passenger, we have the exact number—one hundred of the Pilgrim Company, "who came over in the first ship." And, as fifty-one died the first season, this enumeration makes good those other words of the historian, that, "the greater half died in the general mortality."
