Synopsis
Excerpt from Annals of the Boodeys: In New England, Together With Lessons of Law and Life, From John Eliot, the Apostle to the Indians
History bears record that the landing of that vast army was made without resistance; that the archers landed first, that they wore short habits, and had their hair cut close; that the horse men next followed, wearing steel head-pieces, tunics, and cuirasses, and with long, heavy Spears, and straight, two-edged swords; and then, to the Shore, next came the workmen of the army, pioneers, carpenters, and smiths, who unloaded on the strand, piece by piece, prepared beforehand, three wooden castles already framed.
