(1969), p. 2.</ref> was the flagship of the [[Winthrop Fleet]] on which Governor [[John Winthrop]], other members of the Company (including Dr. William Gager), and [[Puritan]] emigrants transported themselves and the Charter of the [[Massachusetts Bay Company]] from [[England]] to [[Salem, Massachusetts|Salem]] between April 8 and June 12, 1630, thereby giving legal birth to the [[Commonwealth of Massachusetts]]. During this adventure, the ship is said to have carried three times as much alcohol as water. The charter recorded around 10,000 gallons of wine on board for the personal supply of the crew and its passengers, and they had consumed almost all of it in six weeks time. <ref>McMichael, Andrew. "North and South: New England and Pilgrims." Lecture, Bowling Green, October 9, 2014.</ref> [[John Winthrop]] is reputed to have given the famous "[[A Model of Christian Charity]]" sermon aboard the ship. Also on board was [[Anne Bradstreet]], the first European female [[poet]] to be published from the [[New World]], and her family. ▼
