A commission of five was put in charge of general strategy, consisting, besides the two commanders, the governor of Barbados (which had been recovered from the royalists in 1650), of Edward Winslow, who had formerly been governor of the colony of Plymouth, having sailed there in the Mayflower, and of Captain Gregory Butler, who was said to be a bad-tempered nonentity.
