Part I - General View- History

1636 - This year one Burdet who had been a minister of Yarmouth in England, came over 
to Dover, and continued for some time in high estimation with the people, until by artful 
insinuations he excited such a jealousy against Wiggin, the governor of the place, that they 
deprived the latter of his office and elected Burdet in his stead, who was in reality, a 
vicious and profane man.
