From Source:Corey, Deloraine P. History of Malden, Massachusetts, 1633-1785, p. 165, Chapter VI, "Joseph Hills and John Wayte": "Of the early settlers of Malden, two men, above all others, filled prominent positions in the local affairs of the town and took no mean part in the civil and religious concerns of the Colony. ... They earliest bore the responsibilities and honors of the highest offices in the gift of their fellows; and for a period of thirty-four years, from the incorporation of the town until the elder had removed and the younger had been stricken with blindness, they were the only representatives of the town at the General Court..."
