Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Address at the Dedication of the Dexter Memorial Town Hall, Charlton, Mass The spreading growth of the colonies settled on the hills of New England. Hardy as the Norseman, bold as the Carthaginian, industrious and indomitable, the Puritan in religion and the patriot in state, leveled the forest, cleared the lands, built towns and villages, while buffeted by hardship and threatened by savages. Governor Bradford has told of the Plymouth Pilgrims a graphic story of death and misery, most appalling to the present living, all of which had been anticipated before the company started on their journey in search of civil and religious liberty, and in contemplation of which those intrepid spirits said: "It is not with us as with other men, whom small things can discourage, or small discontentments cause to wish themselves at home again." Sickness and exposure had the first season taken one-half the Plymouth Pilgrims, and yet not one of the survivors returned with the ship in the spring. The hearts of the remaining living beat strong with a great purpose, like pulse of ocean tide, impelled by unknown but resistless force to work out Nature´s purpose.
