The foregoing completes the history of the Military Company of the Massachusetts from 1637 to 1737. During that time nine hundred and fifty-two names -including those of the charter members-were borne upon the roll. The positions of those persons in the social, civil, and military life of the colony and province indicate the respect which the people entertained for the Company, as well as the ability, promi- nence, and influence of its members. They were among the first in organizing churches and supporting them; they were the constant friends of public schools; they were prominent in framing and also in administering the laws of the colony ; they were fore- most in the introduction of manufactures, and in the extension of the trade of Boston ; they were, as a rule, the chief military men of the colony, and were among the first in its defence ; many of them were public benefactors, devoting somewhat of their wealth to education, religion, and charity. They trod every battle-field of New England in the first century of the Company's existence ; they fought for freedom on foreign soil ; they judged in the courts; they pleaded at the bar ; they instituted town government, and, levelling forests, were active in settling towns on the frontier.


Among the prominent traits of the members of the Artillery Company, their loyalty to the colony stands forth, fearless and prominent. In the records of the town meetings, in the public papers prepared by members of the Company, it seems they so planned, spoke, and acted as to hasten the time when Independence was born and the Republic of the United States of America was established.
