was brought before court for speaking contemptuously of themagistrates,
and fined twenty pounds and ordered to remain outside the jurisdictionof

subjects of England and not under Massachusetts authority, andsoldiers
were sent to take them. They were besieged and all but Greene wastaken to
Boston, he fortunately escaped imprisonment. In 1644 he and twoothers
