The first permanent settle- SPALDING ment on the continent of America was made at Jamestown, Virginia, in 1607, and the settle- ment languished under the stern rule of Sir Thomas Smith, treasurer of the Virginia. Company in England. The company sent shipload after shipload of immigrants taken from all conditions of society and largely from the penal institutions and the drifting population of the large English cities, that would benefit the places of their present abode by their absence. Of the hundreds that came to Virginia, twenty in each hun- dred lived to get a footing on the new land, the eighty dying of starvation, homesickness, or the fevers incident to the unhealthfulness of the river banks on which they located. These decimated hundreds were found in a wretched condition by Sir George Yeordley, deputy governor of the London Company of

He was made a freeman of the town, May 13, 1640, which proceeding made him not only a member of the church, which was the nucleus of every town of New England, but entitled him to a share in the government, and eligible to the office of mag- istrate and to jury duty. Edward Spalding's name next appears as being present at the house of William Fletcher, one of the peti- tioners to the general court of the Province from Woburn and Concord, for a grant of land six miles square "bordering upon the river Merrimack near to Patuckett planta- tion, and the petition accompanied by one from John Eliot, the Apostle to the Indians, for a reservation of lands adjacent for the ac- . commodation of the christianized Indians, and these petitions received the favor of the court, and the Indian town of Wamesit of about 2,500 acres, and the town of Chelms- ford, named after Chelmsford, England, from which place many of the petitions came, came into existence May 29, 1655, and Edward Spalding was chosen one of seven men to order the affairs of the place between Novem- ber 22, 1654, and the granting of the petition.

The following is a narrative of Captain George Prescott Spalding's career as a sailor : Captain Spalding had his first taste of seafar- ing when he made a trip on the "Ellen Risper"
schooner to Labrador, where he engaged in codfishing from June to October, 1857. His first long voyage was made on the ship "Clar- issa Currier" (March 21, 1858, to March I, 1859), which sailed from Boston to Melbourne, touching at Calcutta on the return trip. Dur- ing December, 1859, he was on the ship"Glen- dower," which sailed between Newburyport and New York. From January 28, 1860, to December, 1860, he made a trip around the Horn to San Francisco, on the ship "Herald of the Morning," touching at the Callao and Chincha Islands on the return voyage to Balti- more. He sailed again for. San Francisco on January 4, 1861, on the ship "Thatcher Ma- gonne," returning to New York, where he ar- rived August 20, 1861. During this period he worked for about three weeks in a saw mill in California at some distance from the Pacific coast. He sailed for Boston, February 2, 1862, on the ship "Gleaner," reaching port May 20, 1862, and July 7, 1862, set sail from Newburyport, Massachusetts, as second mate on the bark "A. W. Stevens," bound for Cape Town and Sydney, arriving at the latter port December 2, 1862. For nearly four years after this he was engaged in the coal trade from Newcastle, Australia, to New Zealand ports, returning from' New Zealand to the United States around Cape Horn to London, and thence to Boston, where he arrived August 26, 1866. His next voyage was as second mate of the ship "Sacramento," which sailed from San Francisco, November 20, 1866, to Liverpool, and thence proceeded to . Boston, coming into port November 10, 1867. He was promoted to first mate of the "Sacramento" when it sailed for New York. Off Cape Cod a heavy gale threw the ship upon its beam ends, and the main and mizzen masts were cut away. The Cunard steamer "Hecla," from Liverpool, which hove in sight, came to the rescue and laid by for five days trying to tow the disabled vessel, but after using up all her hawsers was forced to leave, as she had seven hundred passengers aboard, and her coal was running short. The "Sacramento" was finally taken in tow by a wrecking steamer, and after slipping her chains, arrived in New York, Jan- uary I, 1868. He was first mate of the ship "Annahuac," which sailed February 10, 1868, from Boston to San Francisco, and returned to Boston, February 2, 1869, by way of the Orient, after touching at Liverpool. During his second voyage on the same vessel (April 10, 1869, to June 25, 1871) to San Francisco, returning via Calcutta and Liverpool, he was promoted to captain of the vessel, taking com-

mand April 15, 1871. He was in command of the "Annahuac" when she sailed from Boston to Bombay for Penang, July 20, 1871, and after calling at Singapore, Hong Kong and Manila, reached New York May 22, 1872, During his third voyage on the "Annahuac" (July 29, 1872, to July 10, 1873) from New York to San Francisco, returning via Queens- town and Liverpool, he encountered a storm off Fayal, May II, 1873, in which the foremast was carried away, the three lower masts sprung, and also all stanchions between decks. The vessel arrived in Queenstown under jury masts, and was towed thence to Liverpool. He went overland to San Francisco, and took com- mand of the ship "Bridgewater," which he took to Puget Sound, where he took in a cargo of spars, and thence to Falmouth, England (April, 1875, to February 4, 1876). He again had charge of the same vessel with a cargo of coal from Glasgow, Scotland, to Callao, Peru, where he loaded the vessel with guano, return- ing to Falmouth, and likewise was captain dur- ing another voyage to Valparaiso, and return (June 15, 1876, to December, 1877). Trans- ferred to the command of the bark "Lizzie H." he made three voyages to Angiers (the first from April, 1879, to January 10, 1880), and the second with a cargo of case oil from April 12, 1880, to December 7, 1880), touching at Java and Singapore. During a third voyage (February 12, 1881, to October 28, 1881) to Algiers on the "Lizzie F.", with a cargo of case oil, he ran into a northwest gale, which threw the ship on its beam ends, and he was forced to cut up the cabin floor and throw the cargo overboard. From November, 1881, to August, 1882, he took the ship "Reporter" from Liverpool to Bombay and New York, and again suffered from stormy weather. Near New York a fearful hurricane and tremendous cross sea washed everything movable from the deck, and caused the vessel to spring a leak. With seven feet of water in the hold, he was obliged to signal for help off the coast of Dela- ware, and was towed into New York. Again in command of the ship "Reporter," with case oil, he sailed from New York, October 28, 1882, to Shanghai, and after calling at Naga- saki, Hong Kong, Manila and St. Helena, came to anchor in Liverpool harbor, January 1, 1884. The death of his wife from consump- tion, January 24, 1884, and after she had been at sea with him for four years, was a severe blow to him. She left a young daughter in his care. He again assumed command of the "Reporter," which sailed for Calcutta, March 26, 1886, and returned to New York, Decem-
ber 28, 1886, after a call at St. Helena; and likewise was in charge of the vessel on a voy- age to Chitagong, Bay of Bengal (February 23, 1887, to February 20, 1888). During this trip another daughter was born, February 14, 1888, who was named Ella Reporter Spalding, after the name of the ship. On April 9, 1888, he sailed from New York in the "Reporter" for Madras, and after touching at Colombo, Point de Salle, and St. Helena, returned to New York, December 28, 1888. He sailed from New York, bound for Melbourne, in com- mand of the "Reporter," January 28, 1889. Having touched at Newcastle and Hong Kong, he was homeward bound for New York when the vessel, after being eight days out, struck a small coral patch eight miles off the west coast of Borneo, and became a total wreck. He was taken off by a small English steamer from Batavia, bound for Singapore, where he arrived December 18, 1889, and returned to New York by way of London. He retired from seafaring life February 18, 1890.
Edmund Frost, of Cambridge,
FROST died there July 12, 1672; his wife Thomasin died before 1669; he married (second) the widow, Reana Daniel, previously the widow of Robert Dan- iel, of Cambridge, William Andrew, of Cam- bridge, and Edmund James, of Watertown. He was the well known ruling elder of the church of Cambridge, of whom General Goffe, one of the Regicides who came into New England with his comrade Whaley in his journal, descriptive of his residence in Cambridge, said, under the date of twenty- third of the sixth month, 1660-"In the evening we visited Elder Frost, who received us with great kindness and love, esteeming it a favor that we would come into their mean habitation; assured us of his fervent prayers to the Lord for us ;- A glorious saint makes a mean cottage a stately palace. Were I to make my choice, I would rather abide with this saint in his poor cottage, than with any one of the princes that I know of at this day in the world."
Elder Frost appeared in Cambridge as ear- ly as 1635. The historian of that town, among many other things, says that he pos- sessed "little besides his homestead, and his pressing wants were relieved by the Church."
