Tae habitants of the colonies farther up e valley were suffering not only from e cold but from hunger. Benumbed with cold, about seventy came down the river, hoping to meet the vessel coming from England with their pro- visions: Saybrook welcomed them and gave them shelter. About twenty miles above the fort, they found the vessel caught in the ice. They were able to cut her loose, and those who went home reached their destination after a tiresome and dangerous voyage. The few that remained in Saybrook return- ed home in-the spring. ‘The Pequot Indians had been uneasy during the settling of Connecticut, though they had not yet seriously harmed any of the settlers. This was not to last very much longer, for not more than two years after the settlo- ment of Saybrook was made the Pe- quot war began. The Pequot Indiaas cruelly massacred not only men but helpless women and children. This was not a war so much as an inhuman slaughter of innocent lives. Saybrook suffered the hardships and privations of thi war, which threatened the | prosperity and happiness of this youag settlement. During this struggle Say- brook was often surrounded by the savages and was in constant danger and peril. But through all these diffi- culties Saybrook was kept through the perseverance and bravery of Lion Gardiner. - Fenwick as Governor. After the Pequot war, Col. George Fenwick arrived and acted as governor untll Saybrook was sold. Fenwick was one of the patentees and figures in his- tory as one of the judges of the unfor- tunate King Charles the First. He was accompanied by his wife, Lady Alice Boteles, daughter of an English nobleman. famous governor of Massachusetts.

In December, 1644, the General Court of Connecticut Durchased from Fen- wick and those he represented the fort, the adjoining lands’ and buildings and every claim to the surrounding coun- try. The agreement was that Fenwik was to have the use of the houses and that a duty should be paid to him on all beaver, grain, and biscuit exported from the river for ten years. ‘The General Court began at once to repair the fort and to make some other improvements. They requested Fea- | wick to be their agent to England in order to obtain an enlargement of the patent and to secure other advantages. Lyme Came Later. About thirty years after the settling of Saybrook a settlement was made on * the other side of the Connecticut river. This was known as East Saybrook, ; Three vears afterwards it was granted ileges of a town and was {known as Lyme, after a small seaport in Dorsetshire. 'This is now noted as an colony and is the home of .many retired sea captains. | At'the same time trouble was arising over the boundaries of New York. The Dutch had ceded to England New !
