[40] “Isaac Allerton,” _New Eng. Hist. Gen. Reg._, XLIV, 290–296; Bradford, _Of Plymouth Plantation_, ed. Morison, 202, 198; 3 _Mass. Hist. Soc. Colls._, I, 200; see also Bradford, _History_, ed. Ford, II, opp. 79; _Winthrop Papers_, II, 262, 205, 317, 329, 334–335, and III, 2, 4, 102; Bradford, “Letter Book,” 69. [41] Bradford, _Of Plymouth Plantation_, ed. Morison, 216–217; Bradford, “Letter Book,” 71. Morison reads this “peddle,” _op. cit._, 385. [42] Bradford, _Of Plymouth Plantation_, ed. Morison, 219–220, 386–387, 22, 228; _Winthrop’s Journal_, ed. Hosmer, I, 65, 66. Morison’s note on page 226, by its placement, is confusing in identifying Mr. Peirce’s ship as the _White Angel_. He correctly states further in the note that Peirce was master of the _Lyon_, which arrived in Massachusetts in February 1631, _Winthrop’s Journal_, I, 57. [43] Bradford, _Of Plymouth Plantation_, ed. Morison, 229, 230, 237, 232, 238–244; Thomas Lechford, _Notebook, Archaeologia Americana_, VII (Cambridge, 1885), 189–190, Allerton’s 1639 testimony on the _White Angel_ and _Friendship_. [44] Allerton appears often in _Winthrop’s Journal_, and in _Winthrop Papers_, II, III; in Plymouth’s tax list and as an official, _Records of Plymouth Colony_, eds. N. B. Shurtleff, _et al._ (Boston, 1855–61), 1, 9, 21, 52. Bradford, _Of Plymouth Plantation_, ed. Morison, 241n., 244, 245, 250–251, 392. “Plymouth Colony, Wills and Inventories” (typescript), 1620–39, 4, 5; 1641–49, 44, for debts to Allerton. Allerton gave permission for his brother-in-law’s debts to be settled first with his other creditors, _Recs. Plymouth Col._, I, 20. _Winthrop Papers_, III, 437, July 1, 1637, Winslow’s remarks. For an estimate less harsh than Bradford’s see Andrews, _Col. Per. Amer. Hist._, I, 288–289, 289n. [45] Bradford said the beaver yielded 14_s._ to 20_s._ a pound. On one occasion, however, the arrival of “the plimouth merchants great parcel ... brought down the price,” _Winthrop Papers_, III, 150. See also Bradford, _Of Plymouth Plantation_, ed. Morison, 238, 243, 390, 250, Winslow’s refusal to accept the debts of _White Angel_, and Sherley’s reaction; 288–289, quantities of furs, 1631 to 1636; 392, 250, Sherley’s remarks on Allerton; 255n., Peirce’s ship; 287, plague and low prices; _Mass. Hist. Soc. Proc._, XLV, 619–620, Sherley’s doubts as to who sent the furs. [46] This contradicts Sherley’s letter to Bradford, Sept. 14, 1636, Bradford, _Of Plymouth Plantation_, ed. Morison, 287, 288. The bill of complaint in Chancery and Sherley’s answer are in _Mass. Hist. Soc. Proc._, XLV, 611–623. Minor errors of form in transcription called to my attention by Mrs. A. W. Millard, may be corrected by consulting photostats of the original, P.R.O., C. 2, A/44/43, deposited at Pilgrim Hall, Plymouth, Mass.
