Brewster man arrested after fleeing stolen car
CAPE COD TIMES
SOUTH YARMOUTH - A man wanted on seven outstanding warrants was arrested Tuesday after he allegedly stole a car and ditched it while it was still running so he could flee from a police officer.
Noah E. Pond, 32, of 39 Black Duck Cartway in Brewster also dropped a fanny pack full of beer cans and a liquor bottle as he ran, Yarmouth police said. The car traveled through a parking lot behind the Registry of Motor Vehicles for about 60 feet before coming to a stop, police said. No one was injured.
Pond was charged with operating with a suspended driver's license, possession of an open container of alcohol, negligent operation of a motor vehicle and larceny of a motor vehicle, Yarmouth Police Lt. Steven G. Xiarhos said.
Dennis police alerted local law enforcement about a car stolen from Patriot Square Shopping Plaza at 4:13 Tuesday afternoon. Yarmouth patrol Officer Paul Mellet spotted the 1998 Ford Taurus minutes later heading west on Route 28.
He followed Pond, who drove the car into a rear lot near the Registry and jumped out near the Citizens Bank lot. Rings, a watch and other items found in the car do not belong to the vehicle's owner.
Dennis police are not investigating if they came from other breaking and entering cases in which Pond is a suspect, Dennis Police Capt. William Monahan said.
Outstanding warrants for Pond stem from incidents in Brewster, Harwich and Dennis. They are for malicious destruction of property, larceny of a motor vehicle and breaking and entering, breaking and entering, larceny of a motor vehicle, receiving stolen property and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.

Great Migration Begins:
WILLIAM PONTUS
ORIGIN: Leiden, Holland
MIGRATION: 1632
FIRST RESIDENCE: Plymouth
OCCUPATION: Fustian-worker (from Leiden marriage record).
FREEMAN: In "1633" Plymouth list of freemen ahead of those admitted 1 January 1632/3 [ PCR 1:3]. In 7 March 1636/7 list of Plymouth Colony freemen [ PCR 1:52], and in Plymouth section of 1639 list [ PCR 8:174].
EDUCATION: Signed his will by mark.
OFFICES: Plymouth trial jury, 7 June 1636, 7 March 1636/7, 4 September 1638 [ PCR 1:42, 96, 7:5].
ESTATE: On 5 February 1637/8 William Pontus requested "6 acres of lands to be laid to his house as near as conveniently may be" [ PCR 1:76]. 5 March 1637/8: "Whereas, by a General Court long since" William Pontus was granted two lots totalling forty acres upon which he built a house, and has since, "for the more commodious receipt of people into the town of New Plymouth," relinquished all but five acres of the forty, these five acres are confirmed to William Pontus, and he is granted six more acres "towards the New Field" [ PCR 1:78-79].
On 31 December 1641 "Will[ia]m Pontus is granted two acres of upland to his half acre of meadow in the woods beyond his house about Agawam Path" [ PCR 2:29 (a Plymouth town meeting, recorded in the colony records)].
On 19 January 1647[/8?] Samuel Dunham of Plymouth sold to James Glass of Plymouth six acres of upland which had been given to Samuel by his father John Dunham, who had reserved timber rights on the land; to complete the transaction John Dunham released to James Glass the timber rights in return for "a small moiety of land belonging unto William Pontus aforesaid being estimated at about half an acre" [ PCR 12:150].
In his will, dated 9 September 1650 and proved 4 March 1652/3, William Pontus bequeathed to "my eldest daughter Mary ... my dwelling house with all my lands, goods and all things else whatsoever," except "unto my other daughter Hannah twenty shillings sterling as an addition to her portion which ... I have already given her," and named "my son-in-law James Glasse" executor. On 4 March 1652/3 John Dunham testified that he heard Pontus say "that he had given unto his son-in-law, John Churchill, and Hannah, his wife, one third part of his meadow at the watering place near Plymouth," and that the other daughter, the widow Mary Glass, consented [ MD 11:92, citing PCPR 1:1:114].
The inventory of the estate of William Pontus was taken 20 February 1652/3 and totalled £12 17s., of which £8 was real estate: "his house and land," £8 [ MD 11:92-94]. (See PTR 1:3 for a description of the location of the house of William Pontus using reference points of 1889.)
BIRTH: By about 1585 based on date of marriage.
DEATH: Plymouth 9 February 1652/3 [ PCR 8:14].
MARRIAGE: Leiden 4 December 1610 [NS] Wybra Hansen [Leiden 203]. She died after 15 December 1633 (when she was named as a creditor in the estate of JOHN THORP [ MD 1:160]).
CHILDREN:
i MARY, b. Leiden by 15 October 1622; m. (1) Plymouth 31 October 1645 James Glass [ PCR 2:88; NEHGR 111:178]; m. (2) by 17 January 1653[/4] PHILIP DELANO .
ii HANNAH, b. say 1624; m. (1) Plymouth 18 December 1644 John Churchill [ PCR 2:79]; m. (2) Plymouth 25 June 1669 Giles Rickard [ PCR 8:32; see TAG 30:145].
ASSOCIATIONS: JOHN DUNHAM had also lived in the Zevenhuysen section of Leiden, and presumably came to Plymouth at the same time as William Pontus, at which time the two men were granted adjacent parcels of land for their homelots. This may betoken no more than decades of neighborliness, but a kinship connection may also be indicated.
COMMENTS: Pope says that Pontus was "from near Dover, England," but the marriage record says only from England, and then adds (as translated) "living in the Marendorp near Douveren," which may explain the confusion. His bride is also said to be from England.
On 15 October 1622 William Pontus lived in the Zevenhuysen section of Leiden with his wife and daughter, was a woolcarder, and was "too poor to be taxed" [ Dexter 629]. This daughter is assumed to be Mary, described in the will of William Pontus as "my eldest daughter."
The appearance of William Pontus in the "1633" list of Plymouth freemen, early enough to have been admitted no later than 1632, and his former residence in Leiden, lead to the conclusion that he was probably on one of the last two ships known to have brought members of the Leiden congregation, in 1629 or 1630. His absence from the 1633 and 1634 tax lists indicates that his estate had not improved since 1622, and his absence from the 1643 list of men able to bear arms suggests that he was already sixty, and so perhaps born a few years before 1585, as estimated above.
On 6 February 1638/9 "John Dunhame and Will[ia]m Pontus do undertake to procure the herring weir repaired and drawn and what they agree for with any that shall do the work shall be paid by the whole town according to each in proportion of shares" [ PTR 1:5]. On 25 March 1640 "Will[ia]m Pontus, Thomas Lettice and John Greemes shall repair the herring weir and draw it and deliver the shares" for the ensuing three years [ PTR 1:7].
In 1644 and 1648 William Pontus wintered one of the cows that was kept for the poor [ PTR 1:19, 27]. The cattle mark of William Pontus was a "swallow cropped upon the [word lost] and a snip cut out upon the outside of the right ear" [ PTR 1:1].

Notes
Marriage Notes (George Wiggin Benson)
from johnpbenson.org
"There were six children born to George Wiggin Benson and Elisabeth Poole Benson between 1859 and 1872. Georgiana, the oldest, was followed by four boys \endash Frank, John, Henry (Harry), and Arthur. George Benson prospered as a cotton merchant in nearby Boston, and the family lived comfortably in the big white house on Washington Square in Salem. In addition to the excellent education they received in the Salem schools, the Benson children were fully exposed to the cultural and social life of Salem, and they all benefited from attending classes at Art Club, Drawing Club, and Cooking Club. Salem's harbor and wharves were only a short walk from the house and proved irresistible to the Benson boys, who were by nature both curious and observant. Ships of all descriptions and nationalities frequented the harbor, offloading such exotic cargo as ivory, tea, wine, silk, and Chinese porcelains.
Artistic talent surfaced early in the Benson family, perhaps fostered in part by Elisabeth's own abilities. Her oldest son recalled that his mother had "a little room" on the top floor of their house where she would go to paint and "forget about the rest of the world."
