Best Answer

Massachusetts Bay Colony was the English settlement that became the U.S. state of Massachusetts. Before about 1800 people printed the letter "s" in a way that looked a lot like the letter "f" but with the line not going all the way through. So it really says "Massachusetts Bay" the "s" just looks weird.
