Synopsis
Excerpt from Plymouth's Rock: The Rock Whence We Were Hewn
We have come to talk of the olden time. We have come to honor the dead and to bear away with us, if we may, some benefit from such filial homage for ourselves and for our children.
How unwonted our emotions strangers looking upon each other for the first time, yet one family! As we think of home and childhood, our memories fly over the broad continent to alight, some, among the wintry hills of New Hampshire, and others amid the savannahs of the sunny South some on the banks of the Kennebec, and others where the father of waters rolls the tribute of a thousand rivers to the sea.
