In November, 1657, Mr. Mayhew sailed for 

 England with one of his Indian preachers, but 

 the ship in which he took passage was never 

 heard of more. After this, the mission work 

 was continued by Mr. Mayhew the elder, who 

 had also learned the Indian language. In 1670 

 the first Indian church was formed on Martha's 

 Vineyard, and Mr. Mayhew was requested to 

 become its pastor, although over eighty years 

 of age. This office he declined, and the Indian 

 Hiacoomes was thereupon chosen and ordained 

 as its minister.
