Underbill, who sided with the Puritans, mar- shalled them into military array. They marched up the street towards the court room, perhaps the meeting-house, the Puritan minister going in advance armed with a pistol, and bearing a Bible mounted on a halberd for an ensign. * Larkham and his party declined the challenge, but sent down the river to the 'Episcopal plantation at Portsmouth for aid. The field of contest was not within the province or jurisdic- tion of Portsmouth. But the Episcopal Gov...ernor came up at once in a boat, with an armed party, to the assistance of the imperiled churchmen. Knollys was besieged in his own house, till a court was summoned, when the Governor, sit- ting in judgment, found Underbill and his party guilty of riot, and, fining them, banished them from the plantation. Appeal was made by the Puritans to the Massachusetts col- ony. Simon Bradstreet, Esq. , Timothy Dalton, of Hamp- *W'inthrop's Hist, of N. E. , vol, 2, p. 33. 15 ton, and the famous Hugh Peters, then minister of Salem, were sent as commissioners by the Governor of Massachu- setts.
