T Ibid. 17 The number of freemen in the Colony having so in- creased as to render it " impracticable to debate and determine matters in a body, " * the towns agreed, as early as 1634, to send deputies to a General Court, and thus was established the Representative branch of the Legisla- ture, which soon after came to constitute a distinct and separate House, having a negative upon the Magistrates. But I must pass more rapidly on. The Governor and assistants were chosen by the votes of the whole... body of the freemen, and, by these votes, the wise and faithful Winthrop was re-elected, from year to year, to the chief magistracy, with now and then an intermission de- signed principally to guard against a precedent, which might lead to a Governor for life ; with a few intermis- sions, he was continued in the office, from the time he came over with the charter, to 1649, the year when he died, worn out by the cares of the infant Commonwealth, and severe personal and private trials ; worn out by care and trial, though blessed beyond most men, in being not only the " father of the Colony, " but the founder of a family honorably distinguished in each generation, and having a representative in our day to preside over the councils of the Nation.
