#massachusetts #colony #newworld The year 1630 witnessed a tragic turning point in the early history of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. A long-standing feud between two settlers, John Billington and John Newcomen, reached its deadly climax. Fueled by years of personal animosities and grievances, their confrontation on a fateful day in September 1630 escalated into a violent altercation.
