Excerpt from The Pilgrim Spirit: A Pageant in Celebration of the Tercentenary of the Landing of the Pilgrims at Plymouth, Massachusetts, December 21, 1620 As the Pageant begins, there is a fanfare of trumpets passing to a hymn-like chord. From the canopied rock a rich, powerful voice speaks. The speaker is unseen. I, the rock of Plymouth, speak to you, Americans. Here I rested in the ooze From the ages primordial. Men came and went: Norsemen, Seamen of England, voyagers of France, Dutch adventurers; Over and round me The Indians worked, played, lived. I was a rock of millions along the shore, Waiting, - for what? Came pestilence, sweeping the Indians from the land. Not one remaining here at Patuxet, Accomack. Cap St. Louis, New England, as the Indian, the French, Prince Charles of England, called this spot. Around me the cleared fields waiting, The bay swarming with fish, The woods full of game, all waiting. I, too, waiting, for what? In England, growing, the spirit of man, Freed by his Bible, read in his home, Studied with passion. Out of the Church of England - a Puritan.

Excerpt from In the Days of the Pilgrim Fathers Just as there is great confusion between Pilgrims and Puritans, so it is far from clear to most Ameri cans that, for more than sixty years, that is from 1628 to 1691 when the Colony at Plymouth and that centering about Salem, Charlestown, and Boston, were merged' under one Constitution what we now call Massachusetts, consisted of two distinct colonies, two centers of life and influence, which, though separated geographically by only forty miles, were in every other respect very far apart. Almost the only thing which these two Colonies had in common was the allegiance which both conceded to England.

Excerpt from Little Pilgrims at Plymouth Ick and Suzette were seated in a Shady corner of the Upper deck of the Stamford. They had arrived in Boston the night before, on the nine o'clock western express, from the Water man Ranch, Colorado. They arrived tired, dusty, and cross, after the fashion of travelers. But a warm bath, a supper, and a night's sleep at the Tremont House had changed all these conditions for the better.

Excerpt from Mary of Plymouth: A Story of the Pilgrim Settlement The purpose of this series of stories is to show the children, and even those who have already taken up the study of history, the home life of the colonists with whom they meet in their books. To this end every effort has been made to avoid anything savor ing of romance, and to deal only with facts, so far as that is possible, while describing the daily life of those people who conquered the Wilderness whether for conscience sake or for gain. That the stories may appeal more directly to the children, they are told from the viewpoint of a child, and purport to have been related by a child. Should any criticism be made regarding the seeming neglect to mention important historical facts, the answer would be that these books are not Sent out as histories, - although it is believed that they will awaken a desire to learn more of the building of the nation, and only such incidents as would be particularly noted by a child are used.

Excerpt from Exercises on the Three Hundredth Anniversary of the Landing of the Pilgrims: Held at Plymouth, Massachusetts Tuesday, December 21, 1920 Order of Exercises (Written for the celebration in 1824 by Rev. John Pierpont) The pilgrim fathers - where are they? The waves that brought them o'er Still roll in the bay, and throw their spray, As they break along the shore: Still roll in the bay, as they rolled that day When the Mayflower moored below, When the sea around was black with storms, And white the shore with snow. The mists, that wrapped the pilgrim's sleep, Still brood upon the tide; And his rocks yet keep their watch by the deep To stay its waves of pride; But the snow-white sail, that he gave to the gale When the heavens looked dark, is gone, As an angel's wing, through an opening cloud, Is seen, and then withdrawn. The pilgrim exile - sainted name! The hill, whose icy brow Rejoiced, when he came, in the morning's flame, In the morning's flame burns now. And the moon's cold light as it lay that night On the hillside and the sea Still lies where he laid his houseless head; - But the pilgrim - where is he? The pilgrim fathers are at rest: When Summer's throned on high, And the world's warm breast is in verdure dressed Go, stand on the hill where they lie. The earliest ray of the golden day On that hallowed spot is cast; And the evening sun, as he leaves the world, Looks kindly on that spot last.
