Answer:

Aboard the Mayflower, by necessity, the Pilgrims and "Strangers" made a written agreement or compact among themselves. The Mayflower Compact was probably composed by William Brewster, who had a university education, and was signed by nearly all the adult male colonists, including two of the indentured servants.
