It was written to King James I to request permission to establish a colony in the New World. The Pilgrims were a group of English Separatists who were seeking religious freedom, and they hoped to establish a colony where they could practice their faith without persecution. The letter was an appeal for the king's support and protection, as well as a request for a land grant in the New World. The letter was ultimately successful, and the Pilgrims were granted permission to establish a colony in what is now Massachusetts.
