To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is supposed that William shared his father's politi- cal opinions and that it was persecution on this account that drove him to this country. if this be true, his love of free institutions cost him dear. According to the English law of that day, he was allowed to bring only five pounds in money with him, and the rest of his property, which he had stored in London, was burned in the great fire. He found himself, therefore, in straitened circumstances in a new land, and began to teach Latin an...d other branches of learn- ing. We find the following record of this: — "March 27, 1680. These are to certify that Mr. William Goddard of Watertowne whence the said towne by covenanting agreed to teach such chil- dren as should be sent to him to learn the rules of the Latin tongue, hath those accomplishments which render him capable to discharge the trust (in that respect) committed to him. "(Signed) John Sherman, Pastor." It was his third son, Joseph, born in London, who came to Brookline in 1680, to a part of it then included in Roxbury, and bought a strip of land extending from what is now Clyde street to Jamaica Pond.
