I. 256, place the founda- tion of Charlestown church, including Boston, at this period. Emerson's History of First Church, i>. 11, informs us, that" a covenant was formed and subscribed, August 27, 16iiO. " To reconcile these authorities, may we not suppose that, July 30, 1630, Gov. Winthrop, Dep. Gov. Dudley, Mr. Joliuson, and Rev. Mr. Wilson agreed upon a form of covenant, and took preparatory steps to the gathering of a church, which was ef- fected the 27 of the following month ? Wonderworki...ng Prov- idence, speaking of Salem, does not allow that a cliurch can be constituted by a less number than seven men. Four only are mentioned in Prince's Cliron. As having covenanted at Charlestown, July 30, 1630. These might not consider them- selves to be a church, but design to prepare the way to erect one in due form. On the same day, July 30, 1630, at Water- town forty men subscribed a church covenant, and from that time seem to have been considered a distinct church. If there be no mistake in the historical facts now adduced, it would seem that Watertown church had a prior existence to the one at Charlestown, and was second only to that at Salem in the Massachusetts Bav.
