Goffe.  Was a London merchant and ship-owner, as else where appears. 
     He was not only a Merchant Adventurer, but a patentee and
     deputy-governor of the Massachusetts Company, and an intimate
     friend of Winthrop.  He lost heavily by his New England ventures. 
     There is, as shown elsewhere, good reason to believe that he was
     the owner of the may-Flower on her historic voyage, as also when
     she came over in Higginson’s and Winthrop’s fleets, ten years
     later.

Gudburn.  Appears only as a signer, so far as known.

Hatherly.  Was a well-to-do friend of the Pilgrims, and after many
     complaints had been made against them among the “Purchasers”
     —­arising out of the rascality of Shirley and Allerton—­went to New
     England on a mission of inquiry.  He was perfectly convinced of the
     Pilgrims’ integrity and charmed with the country.  He made another
     visit, and removed thither in 1633, to remain.  He became at once
     prominent in the government of New Plimoth Colony.

Heath.  Does not appear to have been active, and naught is known of him.

Hobson.  Is known only as a signer of the “Composition.”

Holland.  Was a friend and ally of the Pilgrims, and one of their
     correspondents.  He is supposed to have been of the ancient house of
     that name and to have lived in London.

Hudson.  Was not active, and appears as a signer only.

Keayne.  Was a well-to-do citizen of the vicinity of London, a friend, in
     a general way, of the Pilgrims.  He came to Boston with Winthrop. 
     Was prominent in the Massachusetts Colony.  Was the founder and
     first commander of the early Artillery Company of Boston, the oldest
     military organization of the United States, and died at Boston,
     leaving a large estate and a very remarkable will, of which he made
     Governor Winslow an “overseer.”  He was an erratic,—­but valuable,
     citizen.

Knight (Eliza).  Seems to have been the only woman of the Adventurers, so
     far as they are known, but no thing is known of her.  It has been
     suggested that the given name has been wrongly spelled and should be
     “Eleazar,”—­a man’s name,—­but the “Composition” gives the signature
     as Eliza, clearly, as published.

Knight (John).  Finds no especial mention.  He was probably a relative of
     Eliza.

Knowles.  Appears only as a signer of the “Composition.”

Ling.  Was a wealthy friend of the colonists and always true to them.  He
     lost his property and was in poverty when the Pilgrims (though not
     yet well on their feet), in grateful remembrance of his fidelity,
     sent him a generous gift.

Martin.  Was the first treasurer of the colonists and also a may-Flower
     Pilgrim.  Mention of him appears later.  He was no credit to the
     Company, and his early death probably prevented much vexation.
