HISTORY OF DORCHESTER. 101
Besides those who came with Mr. Mather, in the
James, from Bristol, in 1635, the names of Dorchester settlers are found in four other vessels from London the same year (see Savage's Gleanings, Massachusetts Historical Collections).
These arrivals greatly promoted the Connecticut
movement, by furnishing purchasers for the improvements of those intending to migrate. And
the same year that deprived the Town of many of
her most valued inhabitants, furnished accessions to
the population of a more permanent character. New
names continue to appear upon the records until
1640, when the political changes in the mother
country arrested the tide of emigration.
The following may be regarded as a near approach
to a correct list of the second emigration from Eu.
rope, which occurred about the time of Mr. Mather's
arrival and settlement.
