mayflower: the pilgrims' adventure
the london businessmen known as the merchant adventurers, under the direction of thomas weston, invested in the "mayflower" voyage from the very beginning. the documents drawn up, and approved by members of the leiden church, imposed certain restrictions on the pilgrims work week, to which they agreed. but as the time to depart england drew near, the adventurers wanted the restrictions tightened which would have caused the pilgrims to work almost 7 days a week, in an effect to increase profits, without such as due time for religious activities. the pilgrims balked at this and refused to agree to the new terms. william mullins played a part in these deliberations, probably because he had a large investment and needed to ensure a satisfactory return on it, as an adventurers member. and although robert cushman, who had been the leiden agent for "mayflower" voyage preparations, came to plymouth in november 1621 to try to settle the rift between the pilgrims and the adventurers, it was never resolved. eventually the pilgrims bought out the adventurers and formed their own investment company.
